Used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and scented products due to its pleasant, fruity-floral odor with subtle green and fatty nuances. Its ester structure contributes to good volatility and odor stability, making it suitable for fine fragrances, soaps, detergents, and cosmetics. It is valued for enhancing middle to base notes in fragrance compositions, adding depth and diffusion. Also functions as a flavoring agent in trace amounts for food applications where an ester-like, fresh fruity character is desired. Stable under normal storage conditions and compatible with a wide range of fragrance and formulation components.
