Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, soaps, and cosmetics due to its fresh, green, leafy odor. It contributes to the natural scent of herbs and fruits and is often employed in flavor compositions to impart a natural, herbal note. Also utilized in the synthesis of other fragrance compounds and flavoring agents. Its volatile nature makes it suitable for use in air fresheners and scented consumer products where a natural green aroma is desired.
