Amyl Cinnamal, also known as alpha-amyl cinnamic aldehyde, is a volatile fragrance often used in the perfume and cosmetics industry. It is a yellow crystalline substance with a sweet and floral scent, reminiscent of jasmine. Amyl Cinnamal is popular because of its fragrance and its strong durability, thanks to which it remains in the product even after long use.

For example, Amyl Cinnamal can be found in shampoos, shower gels, soaps, skin creams, deodorants, scented candles and household cleaners. It is also a popular ingredient in many hair products such as hair oils, conditioners, or hair masks. However, it is also used in the flavour of food and tobacco products. Although Amyl Cinnamal is generally not harmful in small amounts, it may cause skin irritation or other allergic reactions in some individuals if they are sensitive or allergic.
