Appearance

Colorless liquid.

Solubility

Almost insoluble in water, poorly soluble in propylene glycol and glycerin, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Green-earthy, herbaceous-camphoraceous odor, more piney than that of the Bornyl formate, and more camphor-like, less nut-like.

Flavor

Although this ester does have a sweet taste similar to that of Bornyl formate, it is overall less fruity or attractive.

Uses in flavor

Suggested for use in fruit flavors, and the use in fruit flavors amounts to a few ppm in the finished product (traces).
