  • Applications

    Oxacyclononadec-10-en-2-one (CAS 80060-76-0) is a macrocyclic lactone with a clean, warm, ambrette-like musk profile, used mainly in fine fragrance, personal care, detergents and fabric care as a long-lasting base note and fixative that boosts diffusion and rounds floral, woody, amber and fruity accords; it shows strong substantivity on skin and textiles, making it suitable as a musk heart for eau de parfum, body mists, shampoos, shower gels, air care and candles, typically dosed from trace to a few percent depending on matrix and cost-in-use; it is also valuable in fragrance R&D (musk reference, microencapsulation to enhance performance in alkaline/wash systems, and studies of surfactant interactions) and is often selected as a more sustainable alternative to nitro/polycyclic musks due to its more natural odor character and generally better biodegradability, while still requiring case-by-case checks for formula compatibility, pH stability and IFRA/local regulatory compliance.
