as used in pear drops

Isoamyl acetate, Banana oil, is used to confer banana flavor in foods. Pear oil commonly refers to a solution of isoamyl acetate in ethanol that is used as an artificial flavour.

Banana oil is used in fishing bait as an attractant especially for Carp who flock to the 'Pear drops' scent.  

It is also used as a solvent for some varnishes and nitrocellulose lacquer , as well as being a honey bee pheromone and can be used to attract large groups of honeybees to a small area. As a solvent and carrier for materials such as nitrocellulose, it was extensively used in the aircraft industry for stiffening and wind-proofing fabric flying surfaces, where it and its derivatives were generally known as 'dope'. Now that most aircraft are all-metal, such use is now limited to model aircraft, where it is still popularly used for strengthening tissue coverings and balsa wood.

Because of its intense, pleasant odour and its low toxicity, isoamyl acetate is used to test the effectiveness of respirators or gas masks.
