Overview of Isobutyl Isovalerate

Isobutyl Isovalerate is a fruity-smelling ester widely used in flavor and fragrance formulations. It has a mild, sweet aroma reminiscent of apple and pear, with soft fruity notes. Although it occurs naturally in some fruits, it is mainly produced synthetically for commercial use to ensure purity and consistency.

This compound blends well in both flavor systems and perfumery compositions due to its pleasant profile and good volatility. It is valued for adding fresh, fruity top notes to beverages, confectionery, fragrances, and personal care products.
