Use

Isobutyl phenyl acetate has a strong spicy scent reminiscent of cocoa. In use, the scent is a bit richer: beeswax, honey, amber. You usually use between 0.1% and 10% of this substance in the fragrance composition. The substance is used in chocolate accords, just adding (enough) vanillin or ethyl vanillin is enough to make a nice chocolate scent. Also very suitable in sweet animal compositions such as beeswax, honey and civet. The French perfumer Jean Claude Ellena recognizes chamomile in it and indeed there is also a characteristic bitter animal note in it. It is primarily a heart to base note in perfumes and is stable in most products, including soaps and more acidic products. Keep cool, dry, dark and out of reach of children.

Properties

Isobutyl phenyl acetate is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. The purity is at least 98%. The substance has a fairly long shelf life and occurs in nature, but the synthetic version is used for use as a fragrance.

Packaging

The 10 and 50 ml packaging is made of brown glass with a black cap. The 250 g package is made of aluminum with a stopper and a white cap.

Dangers

Isobutyl phenyl acetate is not classified as a hazardous substance (REACH/CLP). However, the labels may still have a classification: irritating to skin and to eyes. This is not so bad, that is why we will cancel this warning in the future. In addition, we always advise to be careful with all substances and to keep them out of the reach of children. An allergic reaction is unlikely.
