About this material
Geranyl Isovalerate opens with a bright, fresh, and slightly fruity floral scent, reminiscent of geraniums with a hint of green apple. As it develops, the sweetness softens, revealing a more rounded, creamy floral character that adds a subtle warmth to the blend. This ester works well to enhance the freshness of floral compositions and can provide a fruity nuance to fruity or citrus accords. It pairs nicely with other floral notes like rose or jasmine, and can also complement citrus oils for a vibrant top note. Typically used at around 2.500%, it adds a lively lift without overpowering the other elements in the formula.
