Practically insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and perfume materials.
Floral-fruity odor, somewhat greener, more herbaceous than Benzyl acetate, and much more tenacious. Overall more Gardenia-like, less Jasmin-like.
Finds some use in perfume compositions of the more heavy-floral type, such as Gardenia, Honeysuckle, Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, and it performs excellently in soap.
