    Skatole is undoubtedly one of the strongest and most repellent chemicals the perfumer has to work with, nevertheless it remains an indispensable item for many reasons. Traces of skatole can impart a sense of true naturalness to a floral bouquet (impossible to achieve with any other material), while a touch in excess can create the illusion of dying flowers wilting as they gracefully expire.

    In high doses skatole contributes a distinctly animal quality which can, as if by magic, be tamed by high doses of natural sandalwood oil with which it has an inimitable synergy. Skatole is frequently found as the chief component in civet compounds.

    Skatole can be a useful booster for indole where an excess of that related aromachemical can introduce an unwanted naphtholenic character. Skatole, like indole, can be highly discolouring which should be borne in mind when using it in fragrances demanding little to no colour.

    We supply skatole in a 1% solution with DPG but we recommend diluting it further to 0.1% or even 0.01% for most practical needs.

    NOTE: We package all high odour or high risk materials individually in separate heat sealed aluminium bags to mitigate any risk of cross-contamination.

    IFRA 51: No restriction for category 4
    Appearance: Colourless liquid
    Longevity: Lasts > 360 hours on a smelling strip.

    General Information

    Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.

    All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.

    good bad smell

    Quite stinky and gives a great natural smell. Bad breath has never been this good.

    A most amazing substance

    I was hesitant to order Skatole, but it is a unique and important material that in micro doses does amazing things to a composition.
    Do not be afraid, it does come packaged in a way that will not stink up your house. However, it is that stinky once you open the bottle. I diluted it further as Jamie recommends before using it in the Nuit de Chine demo formula. A tiny tiny bit is all you need. This and cumin seed oil are absolutely nuclear substances.

    Give in to temptation

    The only thing I regret is waiting as long as I did to finally add skatole to my collection indolic materials. It's not what I was expecting, but then it is considerably diluted so I'm sure it would be quite foul on its own. To my nose this is indole on steroids. Fruity, floral and leathery animalicl. Nothing to be afraid of and certainly no more challenging than many synth civets out there.

    Easy to use

    When you receive this I was afraid to uncover it, it comes perfectly sealed and an airtight bag completely closed when I opened the bottle I discovered that the way fraterworks sends it at 1% is a perfectly bearable and easy to handle smell, thank you very much for making it possible
