Ethyl acetate

Description and usage notes:

One of the more powerful fruity esters typically used in very small amounts

Arctander describes the scent as “Pleasant, ethereal-fntity, Brandy-like odor, somewhat nauseating in high concentration.” and suggests it is used “to make a topnote smell ‘aged’ or more rounded-alcoholic, or to give a ‘lift’ to Citrus notes or other light notes, etc.”
