Description

Butyl cinnamate (CAS 538-65-8 ), also known commercially as Eliminoxy, is an ester used as a flavoring agent and fragrance ingredient across food and personal care applications. Assigned FEMA 2192 , it is recognized by flavor houses and formulators as a balsamic, sweet, and slightly fruity aroma compound. Its approval status makes it a direct sourcing target. In food and beverage flavoring, it contributes balsamic and fruity nuances to confectionery, baked goods, and fruit flavor compositions. Fragrance formulators incorporate it into personal care products. This includes skin creams, lotions, and hair care formulations where it functions as a scent modifier and fixative. It is also used in fine fragrance blending to add depth to oriental and floral accords. Flavor houses sourcing for FEMA-listed ingredients include it in flavor systems targeting tropical and exotic fruit profiles. It is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid for industrial use. It is available in flavor and fragrance grade, with specifications aligned to FEMA and industry purity standards. Packaging typically ranges from small laboratory quantities up to drum volumes. These volumes are suitable for commercial flavor and fragrance production. The material is handled according to standard chemical safety protocols to ensure high quality and consistency for buyers.
