Used as a flavoring agent in food products to impart fruity and sweet notes, particularly in baked goods, desserts, and beverages. It contributes to the aroma profile in artificial flavor formulations, enhancing characteristics of strawberry, pineapple, and other ripe fruit flavors. Also found in some fragrance compositions for cosmetics and soaps, where it adds a fresh, green, slightly balsamic nuance. Its ability to blend well with other esters makes it valuable in creating complex flavor and scent mixtures.
