Methyl Laitone DPG

About this material

Methyl Laitone is a versatile chemical with a distinctive creamy, coconut-milk profile. Its scent is enriched with soft, fruity undertones reminiscent of ripe plum or apricot, making it a key material when creating tropical, gourmand, or lactonic accords. Highly potent, Methyl Laitone is effective in low concentrations, typically used up to 2% in formulations. It excels at adding depth and texture to white florals such as jasmine, gardenia, and tuberose, while also enhancing fruity notes like peach or osmanthus. Its lactonic quality pairs beautifully with sandalwood, creating a smooth, milky base that enriches the overall composition. — Fraterworks
