Usage
Use (Hekserij)
Gamma Octalactone has a scent reminiscent of coconut. The smell is not
particularly strong, undiluted use is usual. It is used in fruit accords such as
fig, coconut, tropical fruit, apricot and peach. In floral accords it goes well
with gardenia and tuberose, but the creative perfumer will find it surprisingly
versatile. For example, it is a product that can partly replace coumarin, it
goes well with oak moss, sandalwood and those are still just a few examples. You
usually use between 0,1% and 10% of this substance in the fragrance composition.
In perfumes it is mainly a heart to base note. It is fairly stable in most
products; in soap: it is possible, provided the soap is not too fresh and
sufficiently matured.

Properties (Hekserij)
Gamma Octalactone is a colourless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. The
purity is at least 98% and the substance has a fairly long shelf life. It occurs
in nature, but for use as a fragrance, the synthetic version is used. Usually it
is largely made from vegetable substances, but we are not sure whether this also
applies to the substance we sell.
