Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Very faint, sweet and nondescript-floral odor, reminiscent of Mimosa, Cassie, and of the dryout-notes of heavy floral fragrances, e.g. Ylang-Ylang.
Suggested for use in perfume compositions as a blender-modifier-fixative in sweet-floral and powdery perfume types. It blends excellently with Ylang-Ylang, Cinnamic alcohol and Cinnamates, Benzyl salicylate, Nitro-musks and non-Nitromusks, etc.
Produced by direct esterification of n-Butyl alcohol with Anisic acid under azeotropic conditions.
