Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Gamma Hexalactone is one of the more unique amongst the lactones, owing to a floral fruity layer on top of a tonka and tobacco base.  It has a very delicate cresylic nuance (vaguely similar to Cyclopidene) in combination with a low key hint of benzyl acetate giving it a ribbon of ylang floralcy through the heart. This makes it a wonderful nuancer for our Signature vanillin. It also has a hint of booziness which is great for a tipsy accord. This is definitely one of the more interesting lactones and a firm favourite at Fraterworks. Blend it with Rum Jungle Essence [https://fraterworks.com/products/rum-p-jungle-essence] from V.
