Actually, I think the scientific name of the compound in question is "Kiltanol." It's a volatile hydrocarbon produced by the friction of wool fibers against other wool fibers. Thus a 16 oz. twill produces more kiltanol than a 11 oz. Pleating, of course, maximizes this wool-on-wool friction.
Experience has taught us that an 8 yd. kilt of 16 oz. wool is the ideal kiltanol delivery device. 
As to addictive. No....not at all. Why. Do you think I have a problem?!?
