Animal Perfumes & Colognes: 1,787 Animal Fragrances

Animal perfumes make up 2% of our catalog, with 1,787 fragrances built around an animal accord. Animal, or animalic, describes musky, skin-like, leathery or slightly dirty scents once taken from animal materials and now made almost entirely with synthetics. Small amounts add warmth and sensuality, while larger doses smell raw and bold. Typical notes include civet, castoreum and Indian oud, and many are also spicy or floral. Well-known examples include Ambre Inspirant by Zara, Djedi by Guerlain and Obsessive Oudh by Al Haramain.
