Isoeugenyl Acetate

Isoeugenyl Acetate is a synthetic fragrance ingredient used in cosmetic products to impart a floral, spicy, and slightly woody scent. It is a derivative of isoeugenol, a naturally occurring compound found in essential oils like ylang-ylang and nutmeg. Its primary role is to enhance the overall aroma profile of a product.
