Ethyl Maltol 10%

Used in 1 formulas

About this material

Ethyl Maltol 10% has a sweet, candy-like aroma reminiscent of caramelized sugar and cotton candy, with a light fruity undertone that can evoke notes of strawberry or peach. It opens with a burst of sweetness that is immediately appealing, and as it develops, it maintains that sugary character while adding a subtle warmth that rounds out the overall scent profile. In a formula, it acts as a flavor enhancer, amplifying sweet notes and providing a comforting, gourmand quality to compositions. It pairs well with vanilla, fruity notes, and even some florals, making it versatile in sweet and dessert-like fragrances. The 10% dilution means it's easier to work with in formulations, allowing for precise adjustments without overwhelming the blend.
