Description

Allyl Cyclohexyl Propionate, commonly abbreviated as ACHP, is a versatile fruity aroma chemical with a fresh, juicy and slightly green character. It is particularly associated with pineapple-like and tropical fruity nuances, making it valuable for creating bright and lively fruit accords.

In perfumery, ACHP is used as a fruity modifier in pineapple, tropical, fruity-floral and fresh compositions. It can give a fragrance a juicy character while adding a subtle green freshness that helps prevent fruit accords from becoming excessively sweet or heavy.

Its versatility allows it to work across a range of fragrance styles. It can be combined with other fruity esters to create more complex fruit profiles, or paired with citrus and green materials for a fresher interpretation.

Perfumers' Tip

ACHP is useful for creating a fresh, juicy pineapple-fruity effect. Combine it with Allyl Caproate for a stronger tropical fruit character, or use it with lactones to add creamy fruitiness and volume. Citrus oils can emphasize its fresh side, while green materials can create a more natural fruity-green accord.
