Aldehyde C18 (Gamma-Nonalactone)

Aldehyde C18 (Gamma-Nonalactone)

Aldehyde C18, also known as Gamma-Nonalactone, is a smooth and creamy aroma compound prized for its rich coconut and milky character, delivering a soft, tropical sweetness. It provides a warm, velvety profile reminiscent of coconut cream with subtle buttery undertones, making it a key ingredient in both fruity and creamy formulations.

Unlike sharper aldehydes, Aldehyde C18 offers a rounded and indulgent profile, adding body and smoothness to blends. It works exceptionally well to soften compositions while enhancing tropical and dessert-style notes, bringing a natural richness and depth.

Supplied in a convenient 15ml bottle, this high-quality Aldehyde C18 is suitable for a wide range of professional and general-purpose applications where a creamy, tropical character is desired.
