Geranyl formate (FEMA #2514, CAS #105-86-2) is a naturally occurring ester that contributes a bright, floral, and fruity character to various flavor applications. It possesses a well-balanced profile with dominant notes of fresh rose, lavender, peach, apple, pear, and sweet citrus, often reminiscent of neroli and orange blossom. Subtle green and slightly waxy undertones provide depth, enhancing its versatility in flavor formulations. Geranyl formate is commonly used in citrus, tropical, and floral flavor profiles, adding a refined, perfumery sweetness with a hint of herbal freshness. Its ability to bridge fruity and floral notes makes it a valuable ingredient in applications such as beverages, confectionery, and fine fragrances. Avant Organics provides this material as EU Natural, Kosher, non-GMO, and Halal.
