Isoeugenyl Acetate is the acetylated version of Isoeugenol. It functions like a softer and sweeter version of Isoeugenol with less diffusion, however like its related alcohol it adds a lovely warmth to the dry down of a scent. It has a particularly good synergy with balsams and resins as evidenced by its use in Coco (1984) by Jacques Polge for Chanel at 1.2% (demo formula below). Use Isoeugenyl acetate to add a soft carnation or clove note or use it in a gourmand Speculaas cookie accord. Oftentimes a little of this material is all that is needed to add an inviting rounding out of basenotes in a scent which may otherwise seem cold. It could be perceived perhaps as adding colour. It's value should definitely not be underestimated. Previously unrestricted in use, this has now changed and the maximum use in a finished perfume under IFRA 51 is 0.9%. This is a powder and can be added to your fragrance compound directly as it will dissolve readily in the other materials.
