Used in the fragrance industry as a key component in perfumery due to its floral, fruity, and slightly balsamic odor profile. It serves as a fragrance additive in cosmetics, soaps, detergents, and personal care products to enhance scent complexity and longevity. Also employed in flavor compositions for non-edible products, such as scented candles and air fresheners, where a natural-like aroma is desired. Its structural similarity to terpenoids makes it valuable in creating essential oil mimics, especially in synthetic formulations where stability and consistent scent are important.
