Benzyl Formate

About this material

Benzyl Formate opens with a sweet, fruity aroma reminiscent of ripe stone fruits, particularly peach and apricot, with a soft floral undertone that adds a delicate nuance. As it develops, the scent maintains its fruity character while becoming slightly more rounded and creamy, enhancing the overall smoothness of the blend. In a formula, it acts as a sweetening agent that can soften harsher notes and add a touch of elegance, making it particularly useful in fruity and floral compositions. It pairs well with other fruity notes, such as raspberry or pear, and can also complement floral elements like jasmine or rose.
