Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetics, soaps, detergents, and perfumes due to its pleasant floral and fruity odor profile. It is valued in the fragrance industry for enhancing scent longevity and providing a soft, fresh note in formulations. Its chemical structure allows for good stability in a variety of pH conditions, making it suitable for use in both rinse-off and leave-on personal care products. Also employed in the creation of artificial flavors where a fruity or floral nuance is desired, though its use in food applications is limited and subject to regulatory approval.
