It is not listed in the American G.R.A.S. list, and may temporarily be confined to use in fragrances, where a heavy fruity note may be desirable, e.g. in combination with Undecanolide or Ethyl Methyl Phenyl glycidate, etc. for lipstick fragrances, hand creams, hair sprays, etc. and in various masking problems.
