Used primarily as a flavor and fragrance ingredient due to its potent aroma. It contributes roasted, nutty, and earthy notes, making it valuable in creating artificial flavorings for savory food products such as soups, sauces, and meat analogs. Commonly found in flavor formulations for snacks and seasonings where a deep, roasted character is desired. Also used in perfumery to add complexity to fragrance blends, especially in niche or natural-smelling compositions. Its high odor impact means it is typically used in very low concentrations.
