ALDEHYDE C 14

Description

Despite its trade name, Aldehyde C-14 is a lactone, not an aldehyde.

A powerful peach-scented aroma ingredient with creamy, fruity and lactonic nuances. Adds soft richness, depth and lasting sweetness to floral perfumes, fruity accords and functional fragrance creations.

Aldehyde C-14, chemically known as Gamma Undecalactone, is a classic fragrance ingredient appreciated for its rich peach character and creamy, lactonic softness. Although traditionally called an aldehyde, it belongs to the lactone family and contains eleven carbon atoms. Its sweet, fruity aroma helps build peach and apricot impressions while adding rounded depth to floral compositions. Small additions can enrich gardenia, tuberose, lilac, honeysuckle and orange-blossom accords without making the fragrance overtly fruity. It combines particularly well with Gamma Nonalactone, also known as Aldehyde C-18, for creamy floral effects. Because its character is powerful and persistent, careful dosing is essential: excessive levels may overwhelm delicate compositions. Evaluate diluted samples, introduce the material gradually and check its performance in the finished base. Suitable for professional perfume and fragrance development, this versatile peach lactone offers a practical route to fuller fruity-floral accords.
