The Sweet Scent of Beaver Castoreum
It might come as a surprise, but beavers have an intriguing secret tucked away in their castoreum glands located near their tails. These glands produce a substance called castoreum, which has a sweet, vanilla-like scent. Castoreum is used by beavers for marking their territories and communicating with other beavers.
However, the use of castoreum extends beyond the animal kingdom. In the past, it was sometimes used in perfumes and food flavorings due to its pleasant aroma. While it’s no longer a common ingredient in modern perfumery or culinary practices, the intriguing connection between beavers and the world of fragrance and flavor adds a unique and unexpected dimension to our understanding of the animal kingdom.
