Overview
Eugenyl acetate ( CAS 93-28-7 ), also known as eugenol acetate and acetyl eugenol, is a naturally occurring ester derived from eugenol and used as a fragrance and flavoring ingredient.
With a warm, spicy, clove-like character, it functions as an aroma compound in both consumer products and food applications. FEMA 2469 designation confirms its recognized status in the flavor industry.
In fragrance formulation, it contributes clove and spice notes to fine fragrances, soaps, and personal care products where warm oriental or floral profiles are required for the end user.
Food and beverage manufacturers incorporate it as a flavoring agent in baked goods, confectionery, and spice blends where clove-type character is targeted. Oral care product formulators use it to deliver spice notes.
It also appears in tobacco flavorings and functional fragrance applications where eugenol-type aroma without the raw phenolic edge of eugenol itself is preferred for the final aromatic profile.
Eugenyl acetate is supplied as a pale yellow to colorless liquid. It is available in fragrance-grade and food-grade specifications, with buyers typically sourcing to flavor industry standards.
These standards are aligned with FEMA 2469 recognition for safety and quality. Packaging ranges from small drums to bulk quantities depending on application volume and specific industrial requirements.
