About this material
Allyl amyl glycolate is an ester compound formed by the reaction of allyl alcohol and amyl glycolic acid. The compound’s ester linkage plays a key role in its aromatic properties.
It has a characteristic fruity, pineapple, sweet, and floral odour.
It is typically used to impart a sweet, slightly citrusy scent to perfumes, cosmetics, and personal care products.
It is generally considered safe for use in regulated amounts in various consumer products, though, like many esters, it can be irritating in concentrated forms.
Very strong, fruity, galbanum with a pineapple modification.
Adds a unique, modern sparkle to any fragrance.
Together with Ambroxan and Dihydromyrcenol it forms the basis for aquatic fougeres and modern chypres.
Used in relatively low doses and normally in conjunction with other fruity molecules.
Commonly used in fine fragrance, personal care, fabric care and home care products.

Fragrance allergen reference
Generic regulatory reference only. This is not a supplier allergen declaration, measured composition, allergen-free claim or finished-product labelling assessment.
Raw-material reference based on recorded CAS numbers. A CAS match identifies a reference entry; it does not verify the supplied grade, composition, purity or finished-product compliance. Naturals, bases and mixtures require composition review.

No direct listed-entry CAS match in this jurisdiction’s held reference set. This does not mean the material is allergen-free. Constituents, grouped entries and natural-material composition may require further review.
Finished-cosmetic declaration thresholds: greater than 0.001% leave-on; greater than 0.01% rinse-off. Apply the current target-market rules to the actual complete formulation; no concentration is inferred here.

Creative ideas to explore
Creative directions, not tested formulas.Fruit with its peel
With citrus and leafy contrastsExplore a fruit sketch that includes a suggestion of peel or leaf. Compare those accents separately against the fruity reference, noticing whether they create a fresher impression or pull the idea away from the fruit you imagined.
An orchard in bloom
With rose or another familiar flowerPlace the fruity direction beside a simple floral accord. Keep a flower-only comparison and assess whether the fruit reads as a supporting accent, a juicy centre or a separate note that needs a different setting.
Fruit and cream
With vanilla and soft wood directionsSketch a more rounded fruit idea with vanilla as one variation and soft wood as another. Compare sweetness and texture before combining both, leaving room for the original fruity character to remain identifiable in the study.
