About this material
Butyl Butyro Lactate has a soft, creamy, and slightly sweet scent reminiscent of butter and dairy notes, with a subtle hint of fruitiness. It opens with a smooth, milky character that feels rich but not overwhelming. As it develops, the scent becomes more rounded and mellow, providing a comforting warmth that enhances the overall texture of a formula. This material works well as a base note, adding depth and a velvety feel to compositions, particularly in gourmand and floral fragrances. It pairs nicely with vanilla and other creamy notes, and can also help to soften sharper elements in a blend. The typical usage range is from 0.140% to 2.39%, with a common concentration around 0.320%.
