Phenethyl Benzoate ( Phenyl Ethyl Benzoate)

Phenethyl Benzoate — also known as Phenyl Ethyl Benzoate — is a fragrance ingredient valued in perfumery for its rich, warm, and elegant floral character. Its scent profile is typically described as sweet, rosy, and slightly balsamic, evoking the impression of deep rose petals with soft honeyed and powdery nuances.

The material usually appears as a clear, colorless to pale liquid with moderate viscosity, and is appreciated for its smooth diffusion and good tenacity within fragrance compositions. Its character is soft yet persistent, allowing it to contribute warmth and depth while maintaining the elegance of floral accords.

In practical perfumery, Phenethyl Benzoate is frequently used to enrich rose and floral bouquet accords, adding body, smoothness, and lasting warmth to the heart and base of a fragrance. It blends particularly well with rose, jasmine, heliotrope, violet materials, and soft musks, making it suitable for many fragrance styles including classic florals, powdery compositions, and elegant floral fragrances.
