One in all (Posted on 2019-10-09) Difficulty: 3 of 5
I've compiled a list of valid English words, all terminating with one like done, stone, throne

Please create such a similar list of words - 4 to 15 letters, guided by 12 definitions provided below in random order:

* a whipped dessert based on eggs' yolks
* French speaking person
* a curve of fastest descent
* cortisol
* sex-related hormone
* a narcotic a.k.a. Dilaudid
* male voice
* a.k.a. Propanone
* denied, vetoed
* without company
* a solid with circular base and a single apex
* a significant event

perhaps final soln? | Comment 5 of 6 |
zabaglione: whipped dessert based on eggs' yolks
francophone: French speaking person
branchistochrone: a curve of fastest descent
hydorcortisone: cortisol
testosterone: sex-related hormone
hydromorphone: a narcotic a.k.a. Dilaudid
baritone: male voice
acetone: a.k.a. Propanone
forgone : denied, vetoed
alone: without company
cone: a solid with circular base and a single apex
milestone: a significant event

p.s. I personally like pharomone over testosterone, as it includes both genders more equitably. (But this is an argument I do not care to hone.)  

p.p.s. Thanks to Ady for the generous hints.
