Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, cosmetics, and scented consumer products due to its strong floral, jasmine-like aroma with balsamic and spicy undertones. It is valued in fine fragrances and functional products like soaps, detergents, and lotions for its ability to enhance scent profiles and provide long-lasting olfactory stability. Also employed in flavor compositions at low concentrations to impart fruity, cherry-like notes in food and beverages. Its volatility and odor strength make it effective in both top and middle fragrance notes.
