gamma-Dodecalactone

Description and usage notes:

Fruity-peach, very creamy and incredibly persistent – this stuff lasts as long as most musks. Even creamier than gamma-Decalactone but deceptively powerful, it’s probably 10 times stronger. Essential for a good peach or osmanthus accord.

Arctander recommends it for fruity-fatty topnotes and long tenacity in, for example, heavy floral fragrances and says: “It is also used in combination with newer synthetic musks to produce exceptional tenacity and lasting sweetness in powdery and in floral types.”
