Aldehyde C-18 Lauric (Octadecanal) 10% in DPG

Aldehyde C-18 Lauric (Octadecanal) 10% in DPG is a classic fatty aldehyde prized for its waxy, citrusy character with fresh green, ozonic, and slightly floral nuances. Unlike the creamy Coconut Aldehyde (C-18 lactone), this true fatty aldehyde adds a clean, sophisticated, and naturally waxy depth to fragrance compositions.

Pre-diluted in DPG (Dipropylene Glycol) for easy handling and precise dosing, this ingredient is ideal for enhancing aldehydic florals, clean modern fragrances, and compositions requiring a natural waxy-ozonic lift.
