Ethyl Vanillin

Synthetic vanilla analog three times more intense than vanillin. Creamy, sweet, and long-lasting: the last thing that remains on skin.

3-Ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (C₉H₁₀O₃). A structural analog of vanillin in which the methoxy group (–OCH₃) is replaced by an ethoxy group (–OC₂H₅), resulting in approximately three times the odor intensity of vanillin at equivalent concentrations. Does not occur naturally; produced entirely by chemical synthesis. Imparts an intensely sweet, creamy, vanilla-like character with richer, almost balsamic depth compared to natural vanillin. The most potent commercial vanilla-type material available; used at low concentrations in oriental, gourmand, and floral compositions as a long-lasting base anchor.
