About Benzyl Benzoate

Benzyl Benzoate is an ester of benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid.[1] The rate at which the fragrance spreads and the persistence of the scent may vary depending on its molecular size and volatility and the combination of fragrances formulated with it. In cosmetics, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, add fragrance to products or adjust the characteristic odor of raw materials, and dissolve other raw materials to create a uniform formulation.[2]
