Application
Caryophyllene acetate (CAS 57082-24-3) is a natural sesquiterpene ester derived from beta-caryophyllene, primarily found in clove oil, copaiba balsam, and various spices. It presents as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a powerful, warm, woody, spicy, and slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of clove, pepper, and cedarwood. In the flavor and fragrance industry, this compound is widely used as a base note and fixative in fine perfumery, colognes, aftershaves, soaps, shampoos, laundry detergents, and household cleaners, where it imparts exceptional longevity and a rich, spicy-woody character. It blends harmoniously with lavender, rosemary, citrus, and oriental accords. As a flavoring agent, it adds warm, spicy nuances to beverages, baked goods, confectionery, meat products, and seasonings (FEMA 4706). Additionally, caryophyllene acetate exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it a valuable ingredient in cosmetic formulations, aromatherapy oils, and dietary supplements. Its high purity ensures consistent olfactive performance and stability.
