About this material

Ethyl Maltol has a sweet, candy-like aroma reminiscent of caramelized sugar and cotton candy. It opens with a strong, sugary sweetness that can dominate if used in higher concentrations. As it develops, it softens to reveal a slightly fruity nuance, adding a warm, inviting quality to the blend. This material is often used to enhance gourmand notes, making it ideal for sweet fragrances or to add a touch of sweetness to more complex compositions. It works well with vanilla, fruity notes, and even some florals, creating a rounded, cohesive scent profile. In this catalogue, it typically appears at around 2.000%, which is effective for achieving that sweet, comforting effect without overwhelming the formula.
