Other Descriptions

Isobutavan

Givaudan: Vanilla, sweet, fruity
Isobutavan has a sweet, and creamy vanillic character reminiscent of white chocolate, cream soda and with a soft apricot feeling. isobutavan is much less discolourising than vanillin or ethyl vanillin and can be used at levels up to 2% in for example white soap fragrances before discolouration is a problem. it is less powdery than vanillin and has a more creamy "thickening" effect.

Perfumery Laboratory: Sweet, vanilla, creamy with notes of white chocolate and caramel
