Commentary:

Cyclopentadecanolide (Exaltolide) occurs in small quantities in angelica root essential oil and is responsible for its musklike odor.[*]

It is used as a musklike perfume fixative in fine fragrances and as a flavoring agent. It is a substitute for the extremely expensive animal musk.

The Firmenich data sheet on Exaltolide® states that it is “one of the finest synthetic musk notes that possesses a very natural quality.” Exaltolide® adds “depth and roundness to a wide variety of creations but it also has a synergistic effect on the bouquet of a fragrance.” It has an especially sensual effect on skin.
