Luebke, William tgsc, (1988)“Dry powdery musk amber civet”
Givaudan“Musky, powdery, slightly animalic velvione is an exceptional product: a powdery macrocyclic musk that is powerful, highly substantive and stable, as well as biodegradable. velvione has a nitro-musk aspect that is not found either in other commonly used macrocyclic musks, nor in polycyclic musks. velvione is excellent in all applications, including fine fragrance, where it adds a powdery volume and musky softness, and laundry care, where its high substantivity and clean musky note are highly valued.”
Moellhausen“Natural musk; with vegetable- and ambrette seed notes; slightly animalic”
Pell Wall Perfumes“Musk, sweet, powdery, animalic description from givaudan: “velvione is an exceptional product: a powdery macrocyclic musk that is powerful, highly substantive and stable, as well as biodegradable. velvione has a nitro-musk aspect that is not found either in other commonly used macrocyclic musks, nor in polycyclic musks. velvione is excellent in all applications, including fine fragrance, where it adds a powdery volume and musky softness.””
