Furaneol, also known as Strawberry Furanone or 4-Hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone, is a gourmand aroma compound characterized by its rich, sweet caramel, burnt sugar, cotton candy, and ripe fruity notes, particularly reminiscent of strawberry jam. It occurs naturally in strawberries, pineapples, raspberries, coffee, and various other foods.

In perfumery, Furaneol is used to add depth and a ripe, jammy sweetness to strawberry, pineapple, and tropical fruit accords. It is also a valuable ingredient in gourmand fragrances, helping recreate the delicious nuances of caramel, caramelized sugar, candy, and sweet desserts.

Furaneol has a powerful odor profile and is typically used at low concentrations to impart warm sweetness and enhance the authenticity of fruity accords. It is generally available as white to pale yellow crystals or powder and can be diluted before incorporation into fragrance formulations.
