Description :
Geranyl Caproate, commonly referred to by its chemical formula C16H28O2, is an ester with an appealing fruity and floral fragrance. Combining the freshness of apples and pears with a rose-like scent, it adds natural fruity nuances while maintaining blend smoothness for fragrance creations. This ester can be widely found used within flavour and fragrance compositions by way of natural fruity notes or smoothener add-ins within blends for greater natural fruit nuances while smoothening blends over time.
Geranyl Caproate is insoluble in water but miscible with most organic solvents such as alcohols and esters, making it suitable for aroma creation, cosmetic formulation, and industrial fragrance formulation.
Adds a sweet, fruity, and floral aroma to perfumes, soaps, and cosmetic products. Commonly used as a top-to-middle note ingredient to bring freshness and longevity, and often blended with Anisyl Acetate, Alpha-Hexylcinnamaldehyde, and Cyclohexyl Salicylate for balanced fragrance creation. Geranyl Caproate and related esters act as fixing agents in perfumery, enhancing the lasting power of delicate scents.
Used in fruit-flavoured food formulations like beverages, candies, and baked products for realistic fruit blends with apple-pear notes that add depth. Also compatible with esters like Methyl Hexanoate and Methyl 10-Undecenoate to create complex flavor profiles.
Acting as an intermediate for fine chemicals and aroma compounds. Utilised extensively by R&D labs for creating esters and terpene derivatives; can also be combined with 2-Nonanone and Aldehyde C-18 to formulate natural-inspired aromatic blends.
