Used as a flavor and fragrance additive in the food and cosmetic industries due to its strong fruity, citrus-like, and slightly spicy aroma. Commonly found in fruit flavor formulations, especially in pineapple, apple, and berry flavors. Also employed in perfumes and personal care products to add fresh, green, or tropical notes. Its (E)-isomer contributes to more natural and intense scent profiles. Used in small concentrations because of its high odor potency.
