Description

Linalyl Acetate is a classic fragrance material known for its fresh, soft floral character with distinctive bergamot, lavender and slightly fruity facets. It occurs naturally in essential oils such as lavender and bergamot and is one of the important contributors to their characteristic fragrance profiles.

In perfumery, Linalyl Acetate is valued as both a character material and a versatile blender. It adds freshness, smoothness and floral volume to compositions without making them overly heavy. It is particularly important in lavender and bergamot accords, fresh aromatic fragrances, colognes and fougère structures. It can also help bridge citrus top notes with floral and woody parts of a fragrance, making the overall composition feel more cohesive.

Perfumers' Tip

Linalyl Acetate is an excellent starting material for building lavender and bergamot accords. Combine it with Linalool for a fuller floral effect, or pair it with citrus oils to create a bright, smooth cologne-style opening. It can also soften sharper citrus or herbal materials and help connect them with floral and woody notes.
