Description

Phenyl Ethyl Isobutyrate is a fruity-floral ester with a sweet, soft and pleasantly rounded odor profile. It combines fruity and honeyed nuances with subtle rose-like floral facets, creating a warm and slightly tropical impression. The material can bring a smooth, juicy quality to fragrance compositions without the sharpness sometimes associated with more volatile fruity esters.

In perfumery, Phenyl Ethyl Isobutyrate is useful as a fruity and floral modifier, particularly in rose, fruity-floral and sweet compositions. It can add body and sweetness to floral accords while enhancing the natural-looking fruitiness of a fragrance. Its soft character also makes it useful for blending sharper citrus or fruity materials into a smoother heart.

The material works particularly well in modern fruity-floral structures, where it can help create a juicy, sweet and rounded effect. It can also support honeyed and tropical-style accords when combined with complementary fruity and floral ingredients.

Perfumers' Tip

Phenyl Ethyl Isobutyrate can add a soft, juicy fruity dimension to floral compositions. Try it with Phenethyl Alcohol, Geraniol and Citronellol for a fuller rose-floral accord, or combine it with fruity esters and vanillin for a sweet tropical-fruity effect. Use it as a supporting material rather than allowing its fruity character to dominate the formula.
