Description

Suederal (IFF) is a modern leather fragrance material designed to create a smooth, soft and elegant suede effect. It is valued for its ability to add a refined leather texture without making a composition excessively harsh, smoky or animalic. Suederal is recognized as an IFF fragrance ingredient and is commonly used to create suede-style effects in modern perfumery.

Its character combines soft leather, suede, warm, woody, musky and slightly animalic nuances. This makes it useful for giving fragrances a tactile, velvety quality and for adding depth to both masculine and unisex compositions.

Suederal works particularly well in leather, suede, woody, amber, musky, oriental and modern niche fragrances. It can be used to create a clean suede effect or combined with darker materials such as tobacco, patchouli, birch or labdanum for a richer leather accord.

Perfumers' Tip

Suederal is particularly useful when you want a soft, polished suede texture rather than a harsh or smoky leather effect. Combine it with Vertofix, Timbersilk and Ambroxan for a modern woody-suede foundation.

For a warm leather composition, try Suederal + Labdanum + Patchouli + Sandalwood + Ambroxan. Tobacco Absolute and Tobacarol can add a darker tobacco-leather dimension, while Saffron and Cardamom can introduce a luxurious spicy facet.

For a softer floral-suede fragrance, combine Suederal + Rose + Violet + Jasmine + White Musks. Bergamot can brighten the opening while Iso E Super can provide additional woody diffusion.

Suederal is especially useful for creating smooth, tactile leather and suede accords and can be blended with woody, amber and musky materials to create a sophisticated modern base.

For commercial applications, always check the current SDS, technical documentation and applicable IFRA standards for the exact Suederal product/grade. Supplier documentation can differ between grades such as Suederal and Suederal LT.
