Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products due to its mild, fatty, and waxy odor. It helps stabilize fragrance formulations and prolong scent longevity. Also functions as an emollient in skincare products, providing a smooth, non-greasy feel by improving spreadability and skin absorption. Commonly found in lotions, creams, and perfumes. Its ester nature makes it suitable for use in low-irritation formulations, including sensitive skin products. Additionally, it may serve as a solvent or carrier for other fragrance compounds in air fresheners and scented household products.
