Application Overview
Ethyl 2-Methylbutyrate is a highly impactful ingredient, essential for creating authentic, natural-smelling fruity top notes in flavors and fragrances:
Flavoring Agent (Apple & Berry): It is a fundamental component for recreating the complex aroma of green apple, red apple, strawberry, raspberry, and tropical fruits (e.g., mango, guava). Its high volatility is crucial for the instantaneous perception of freshness in beverages and confectionery.
Fine Fragrances (Fruity Top Notes): Used in trace amounts in the top notes of perfumes to provide an immediate burst of fresh, sparkling fruit. It works exceptionally well in modern green, citrus, and light floral bouquets to enhance vitality and diffusion.
Beverage Industry: Essential for soft drinks, hard ciders, and ready-to-drink alcoholic beverages where a clean, authentic fruit flavor top note is required to drive consumer appeal.
Perfumery Modifier: Acts as an extremely effective modifier and top-note booster, improving the initial olfactive impact and perceived naturalness of the entire composition.
