Propyl benzoate, also known as benzoic acid propyl ester, is a naturally-occurring chemical compound found in clove stems and sweet cherries. This organic compound is used in a number of applications. It is characterized by a nutty odor and tastes like a sweet fruit, and hence used as a synthetic flavoring agent in foods. It also has antimicrobial properties and used as a preservative in the cosmetics industry. It is on FDA CFR - Code of Federal Regulations Title 21 list.
