Use

Cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate has a green fruity scent reminiscent of fruits such as apple, pear, melon and banana. The smell is quite strong, making a dilution of for example 10% (in DPG for example) can therefore be useful. Very versatile: can be used, for example, in fruit, citrus and floral scents. You usually use up to 2% of this substance in the fragrance composition. It gives a nice fruit scent when diluted, but in higher doses it becomes a bit greasy and sweeter. Also goes well with the scent of white flowers such as ylang, jasmine and magnolia. It is primarily a top note in perfumes and is stable in most products. It is also surprisingly stable in difficult products such as soap and deodorant. Keep cool, dry, dark and out of reach of children.
