About this material

Cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate is a highly diffusive green-fruity aroma material prized for its ability to introduce vivid freshness, natural realism and sparkling botanical lift to fragrance compositions.

Its distinctive profile opens with an intensely crisp, leafy-green character, followed by sharp, juicy fruit facets reminiscent of freshly cut stems, crushed foliage and the peel of an unripe banana.

In dilution, softer pear, apple, pineapple and tropical fruit nuances begin to emerge, giving the material remarkable versatility across both naturalistic and imaginative accords.

An essential ingredient for creating convincing leafy, stemmy and foliage-green effects, Cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate brings immediate vitality to fragrance top notes.

It is especially valuable in the construction of fresh fruit accords, enhancing pineapple, pear, apple and banana compositions with a bright, freshly harvested quality rather than overt sweetness.

Within floral perfumery, it adds authenticity and natural texture to Jasmine, Muguet, Lilac, Narcissus and other delicate blossoms.

Its green lift suggests living petals, moist stems and freshly gathered flowers, helping floral accords feel more radiant, dimensional and true to nature.

Cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate also performs beautifully in modern colognes, green florals, fruity fragrances, botanical concepts and contemporary masculine compositions.

Used with restraint, it creates an elegant fresh-air effect; at higher levels, it can produce bold crushed-leaf, green-fruit and tropical foliage impressions.

Its strong diffusion allows even small quantities to brighten a formula, connect green and fruity elements, and give heavier floral or woody structures a more vibrant opening.

It blends particularly well with Cis-3-Hexenol, Hexyl Acetate, fruity esters, citrus materials, Jasmine ingredients, violet-leaf notes, galbanum effects and fresh aldehydic accords.

As modern perfumery increasingly favours stable, natural-smelling green materials, Cis-3-Hexenyl Acetate offers a refined and versatile alternative to older alkyl acetylenic esters.

Powerful yet highly adaptable, it is an indispensable ingredient for creating fragrances with freshness, realism and the unmistakable sensation of living green nature.

This molecular reference matches the catalogue’s recorded CAS and formula. It does not confirm the supplied grade, purity, stereochemistry, isomer proportions, composition, impurities or unlisted constituents.

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 contrasts

Explore 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 flower

Place 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 directions

Sketch 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.

Document scope and limitations

The supplementary documents currently available for this material are identified in this tab. Availability varies between materials.

Batch-specific certificates, analytical results and additional technical data are not guaranteed. They are supplied only where their availability is expressly confirmed in this tab or separately confirmed by us in writing.

Where provided, supplier IFRA documentation does not replace a comprehensive safety assessment or constitute approval of a finished formulation. Customers must consider their complete formulation and intended application.

Any linked IFRA standard is provided for reference and is not a batch-specific specification or analytical certificate for the material supplied.

Do not assume that documentation confirms a particular batch, residual constituent level, manufacturing process or analytical result unless it expressly states this.

The same limitations apply to allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets, specifications, and other regulatory, analytical or compositional documents. These documents provide information only within their stated scope; they do not replace a comprehensive safety assessment or constitute approval of a finished formulation, nor do they guarantee suitability for a particular application. Customers must assess their complete formulation and intended use.

Customer responsibility

These limitations apply to reliance on all documentation supplied, including IFRA information, allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets, specifications and other supporting documents.

Perfume Extract is solely a reseller of this product and is not an agent, official distributor, or affiliated in any way with the manufacturer.

Customers are responsible for determining whether the material and available documentation meet their requirements before purchase, and for assessing the safety and compliance of their finished products.

We do not provide formulation instructions, formulation consultancy or confirmation of suitability at a particular concentration or for a particular application.

Producer identity, detailed sourcing and processing information are not disclosed beyond the information published in the product listing.

Please read our Documentation Supply Policy alongside the product specification and available documentation.

Synonyms, alternative names, CAS/EC references, botanical names, manufacturer references and external links may describe a substance or material family generally. They should not, on their own, be taken as confirmation of the supplied material’s producer, geographical origin, manufacturing process, grade, purity, constituent levels or batch characteristics.

In particular, a synonym or reference must not be used to infer that a material is free from a particular constituent, meets a numerical specification, or is suitable for a particular application or concentration.

IFRA information, allergen declarations, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), technical data sheets and other supporting documents apply only within their expressly stated scope. A general specification or reference document is not a batch-specific analytical result unless it expressly identifies the relevant batch.

If information appears inconsistent, or a particular characteristic is essential to your purchase, contact us for written clarification before ordering. Do not resolve discrepancies by assuming that a synonym, external reference or document for another grade applies to the material supplied.

We do not confirm characteristics beyond those expressly supported by the applicable product specification or our written confirmation. Customers remain responsible for assessing their complete formulation and intended application.
