Appearance

Colorless, slightly oily liquid.

Solubility

Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils, poorly soluble in propylene glycol.

Odor

Delicately fruity, Pineapple-Apricot-like odor of good tenacity. Tealike, almost Clary Sage-like undertones.

Flavor

The taste is generally fruity, but not very sweet, yet practically free from camphoraceous or woody notes.

Uses in perfumery

The above ester has been suggested for use in perfume compositions as a modifier for fruity notes, to increase the tenacity of same, and to introduce a different type of sweetness. It blends very well with the lonones and it supports Benzyl acetate in Jasmin types, introduces freshness in lipstick perfumes, etc.

Production

Produced by direct esterification of Cyclohexyl methanol with iso-Butyric acid.
