Odor description: sweet, coconut-like, creamy, buttery, fatty, hints of tonka

A classic lactone from the gamma-lactone family. One of the most recognisable coconut materials in a perfumer's palette. Our version comes from Bedoukian Research — the American company that has been regarded for decades as the global quality benchmark in the lactone category. Their lactones are exceptionally clean chromatographically and free of unwanted off-notes.

It is sweet, creamy, distinctly coconut — with a characteristic milky, buttery and lightly fruity (peach, apricot) texture. In the background a subtle coumarinic depth lingers, alongside a light waxy facet. Compared to aldehyde C-18 (gamma-nonalactone), Gamma Octalactone feels lighter and fresher.
