This material blends very well with the Rose materials, Hyacinth and Styrax, and it supports spicy notes in complexes with Clove or Eugenol. It gives interesting effects in Fir needle fragrances (room sprays etc.), and will, with adequate companions, partly substitute for Cinnamic aldehyde in many cases.
Produced from (several methods) e.g. Styryl bromide and Potassium cyanide.
