Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Benzyl Isovalerate is a heavy floral and fruity material which lacks the
penetrating sweetness of its more famous cousin benzyl acetate. It is well
suited to oriental fragrances and is a wonderful addition to rich florals, in
particular jasmine.
Nuances of sour milk with a vague hint of emesis belies its true nature as an
ester of butyric acid. However, despite the unpleasant associations of that
acid, Benzyl Isovalerate has the positive effect of adding naturalness to fruit
and gourmand accords and fragrances (especially apple and pineapple).
Benzyl Isovalerate excels in doses below 1% and blends exceedingly well with
Ylang Ylang [https://fraterworks.com/collections/ylang-ylang-collection],
Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinyl Butyrate, Cis 3 Hexenol and its esters, Benzyl Acetate
[https://fraterworks.com/products/benzyl-acetate-natural] and most fruit
materials. Try it with a touch of benzoin resinoid
[https://fraterworks.com/products/benzoin-siam-resinoid-50-tec] in an oriental
scent.
