Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Alcohol C-12 Lauric is a waxy solid at room temperature with a soft, clean,
soapy aroma and an unmistakable fatty quality. Warm honey and coconut nuances
sit underneath, giving it more character than you might expect. On the strip
it's quiet but remarkably persistent, lasting over 80 hours.
Use Alcohol C-12 Lauric to build convincing mimosa and cassie accords — its
waxy-honey character is essential to both. It anchors aldehydic florals with
warm soapy depth while acting as a fixative. In tuberose compositions, the
coconut facet reinforces that naturally creamy undertone.
Pair it with its aldehyde counterpart, Aldehyde C-12 Lauric, for a complete waxy
spectrum from sparkling top to warm base. Orange blossom absolute and ylang
ylang are natural partners. Everything you build around Alcohol C-12 lasts
longer — it's a quiet fixative that should be in every perfumer's arsenal.
