• Ambergris: Lumps of oxidized fatty compounds, whose precursors were secreted and expelled via the sperm whale. Ambergris should no longer be pressured with yellow amber, that is used in rings. Because the harvesting of ambergris includes no damage to its animal supply, it remains one of the few animalic fragrancing retailers around which little controversy now exists.

• Castoreum: Obtained from the odorous sacs of the North American beaver.

• Civet: Also referred to as civet musk, that is received from the odorous sacs of the civets, animals in the family Viverridae, related to the mongoose. World Animal Protection investigated African civets caught for this motive.

• Hyraceum: Commonly called "Africa stone", is the petrified excrement of the rock hyrax.

• Honeycomb: From the honeycomb of the honeybee. Both beeswax and honey may be solvent extracted to provide an absolute. Beeswax is extracted with ethanol and the ethanol evaporated to supply beeswax absolute.

• Musk: Originally derived from a gland (sac or pod) positioned between the genitals and the umbilicus of the Himalayan male musk deer Moschus moschiferus, it has now in particular been changed by the usage of artificial musks every now and then known as "white musk".
