I've never smelled natural costus root, but it is totally banned from commercial perfume usage. This reconstitution, by IFF, was made to return costus to the perfumer's palette. This base has been around for a while, and apparently underwent at least one major formula edit. Costus, blended with ambergris, produces a reference erogenic effect. I like it at 1.5% to 2% in a fragrance.

soft furry animal note

Wow! This stuff really is animalic. I didn't expect much from it and initially overlooked it, but I'm glad I did try it out.
It's not animalic in a harsh or pungent way in the same light as say, Tonquitone (which, by the way, is one of the most realistic animal musks available). Instead, this is soft, furry, and enveloping.
Like the little description says, you really can pick up leather and labdanum facets in it too.
Truly a useful material.
