Pentadecalactone, also known as Cyclopentadecanolide, is a compound used primarily in perfumery and cosmetics for its characteristic coconut-like scent. As its alternative name mentions, this chemical is a cyclopentadecanyl lactone. Pentadecalactone is known for its high stability, which makes its long-lasting effect possible.
Pentadecalactone is most commonly found in products such as soaps, shampoos, creams, deodorants and other body and hair cosmetics. Its presence adds a pleasant and delicious aroma reminiscent of exotic coconut to these products. However, this is not the only use of this compound. Due to its stability and long-lasting effect, pentadecalactone is also included in many perfumes and home fragrances. However, its use doesn't stop at body and space care. At the same time, it is also used in the food industry, where it adds a specific taste and aroma to food. It is therefore a very versatile and popular compound.
