Fragrance allergens › Hexadecanolactone
Hexadecanolactone (CAS 109-29-5) is one of the fragrance allergens the European Union requires to be named on a label once it passes a threshold. It is rarely something you added on purpose: 1 material in this catalog carries it as a constituent, which is how a formula ends up over the line without a single line item admitting to it.

Soft, discreet, waxy-powdery macrocyclic musk (the saturated analog of ambrettolide) with a gentle, clean skin-like warmth. Useful as a quiet fixative filler in musk bases where louder materials would dominate.
It is a material in its own right, not only a line on a label: its catalog page carries the full profile.
0 of the 2 carriers in this catalog are naturals and 2 are synthetic. The heaviest carrier that is not the molecule itself is Silvanone Supra, at about 25%.
| Material | Estimated content |
|---|---|
| Hexadecanolide the material itself | 100% |

Estimates from typical published compositions, not a certificate of analysis for your bottle. A supplier's own figures always win.
PerfuMate totals these across a whole formula while you compose, counting the same molecule arriving from several materials at once, and writes the declaration for the back of the bottle. Start a formula, free. No account needed.
