Used in flavor and fragrance formulations for its sweet, fruity, strawberry-like aroma. Commonly found in food flavorings to enhance berry notes, especially in dairy, confectionery, and baked goods. Also utilized in perfumery to add a soft, jammy fruit character to floral and gourmand scents. Its volatility makes it suitable for top to middle fragrance notes. Often blended with other esters and fruit flavors to create natural-identical profiles. Approved for use in food by regulatory bodies when used within safe limits.
