It is a \u003cstrong\u003eproprietary fragrance blend rather than a single aroma molecule\u003c\/strong\u003e, and supplier references describe its odor as animalic and musky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts character combines \u003cstrong\u003ewarm musk, animalic, leathery, skin-like, balsamic and ambergris-like facets\u003c\/strong\u003e. Used carefully, Tonquitone can give a perfume a sensual, intimate and slightly wild quality while adding considerable depth and persistence. It is particularly useful when a composition needs an animalic foundation rather than a clean or purely cosmetic musk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTonquitone works especially well in \u003cstrong\u003emusk, leather, chypre, amber, oriental, fougère and vintage-style fragrances\u003c\/strong\u003e. It can function both as a supporting fixative and as a recognizable signature material.
