Benzyl acetate
Description
Benzyl acetate ( CAS 140-11-4 ) is a naturally occurring ester used commercially as a fragrance ingredient and flavoring agent. Known under FEMA 2135 , it delivers a characteristic jasmine, floral, and fruity scent profile. This chemical underpins demand across both cosmetic and food-grade supply chains. In fragrance manufacturing, it functions as a key floral modifier in fine perfumes, soaps, and personal care products. It contributes jasmine and gardenia character to finished compositions. Food and beverage formulators use it to impart fruity, floral top notes in confectionery, baked goods, chewing gum, and non-alcoholic beverages. Cosmetic manufacturers incorporate it into shampoos, body lotions, and skin creams where a defined floral scent profile is required. It also appears in household and industrial fragrance blends. These applications include air fresheners and fabric care products, where cost-effective floral character is a formulation priority. The product is supplied as a clear, mobile liquid in drum and IBC quantities. Food-grade material is available meeting FCC specifications, while fragrance-grade supply typically conforms to industry purity standards above 99%. This ensures reliability for industrial production. Buyers should confirm natural versus synthetic origin declarations when sourcing for natural fragrance or clean-label food applications. This verification is essential for meeting specific regulatory and labeling requirements. Contact us for supply of Benzyl acetate Request Quote
