Acetyl Isoeugenol is used as an alcohol-soluble flavoring agent with spicy, floral, and carnation undertones, blending well with vanilla-type flavors. It lasts longer in perfume than other comparable agents such as dihydroeugenol and methyl diantilis, giving body to the scent. It can be used as an alternative to products such as dianthine, which degrades into isoeugenol – which can cause hives in some individuals from long-term exposure, and has thus been deemed non-IFRA (International Fragrance Association) compliant.
