Smells of: sweet, caramel, nutty
Role: gourmand enhancer

Ethyl Cyclopentenolone opens with a sweet, caramel-like richness that has a slightly nutty undertone, reminiscent of baked goods. As it develops, it reveals a warm, creamy depth that adds a smooth, rounded quality to compositions. This material is particularly effective in enhancing gourmand and sweet accords, providing a comforting base that can soften sharper notes. It works well with vanilla, tonka bean, and fruity elements, creating a harmonious blend that feels inviting. The PG dilution makes it easier to incorporate into formulas without overwhelming them, allowing for a more controlled release of its sweet character. Typical usage ranges from 0.020% to 0.64%, with a common target around 0.090%.
