Description

Gamma Decalactone is a classic lactone aroma chemical with a creamy, fruity and distinctly peach-like odor profile. It combines ripe peach and apricot nuances with soft creamy, milky and slightly coconut-like facets. This makes it an important material for creating realistic fruit effects as well as smooth gourmand compositions.

In perfumery, Gamma Decalactone is widely used in peach, apricot, tropical, fruity-floral and creamy accords. It can give fruit compositions a juicy and ripe quality while adding softness and body to the fragrance. It is also useful for creating creamy and lactonic effects when paired with vanilla, coconut, caramel and other sweet materials. Small amounts can enrich floral compositions by giving them a soft, fruity dimension.
