Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient due to its strong, fatty, waxy, and citrus-like odor with green and floral nuances. Commonly found in perfumery to add freshness and naturalness to citrus, floral, and green compositions. Frequently employed in fine fragrances, soaps, detergents, and cosmetics to enhance scent profiles with a crisp, aldehydic character. Also used in flavorings in trace amounts to impart citrus and fruit notes, particularly in orange and grapefruit flavors. Its low odor threshold makes it highly effective even at very low concentrations.
