Prenyl Acetate

Top Note
CAS# 1191-16-8
Manufacturer: Symrise

Odor description: 

A fruity ester with a distinct banana character and an exotic, yellow-floral undertone. Alongside banana, it reveals notes of apple, mango, and delicate accents of ylang ylang and jasmine – this tropical, sweetish aura gives it a unique character. Softer and more natural than isoamyl acetate.

Excellent for building yellow fruit accords (banana, mango, pear, pineapple) and works beautifully with exotic flowers – ylang ylang, frangipani, tuberose. Effective even in trace amounts, adding juicy, exotic freshness to compositions without oversweetening.

Highly volatile, making it very short-lasting – a typical top note.
