Description

CPD / Macrolide Supra Exaltolide, also known as Exaltolide, is a premium macrocyclic musk valued for its soft, elegant and natural-smelling character. It has a refined clean, powdery, warm and skin-like musk profile, making it a popular choice for sophisticated fragrance compositions.

Exaltolide is particularly appreciated for its smooth diffusion and excellent substantivity. Rather than creating an aggressive or overly sweet musk effect, it provides a gentle and sensual background that can make a fragrance feel softer, more polished and luxurious.

In perfumery, it is widely useful in fine fragrance, white musk, floral, powdery, woody and skin-scent compositions. It can also help round out the base and improve the overall persistence of a perfume.

Perfumers' Tip

Exaltolide is excellent for creating a soft, luxurious and skin-like musk base. Combine it with Ambrettolide for a richer natural musk effect, or pair it with Hedione and floral materials for a radiant floral musk. Sandalwood, Iso E Super and Ambroxan can add warmth, diffusion and modern woody depth.
