A soft, transparent floral-woody material derived from linalyl acetate chemistry — reminiscent of lily-of-the-valley and light bergamot petitgrain, with a clean green freshness.

This relatively new ester has been suggested for use in perfume compositions, and is slowly finding its way into many types of fragrance. Reasonably stable and more powerful than Linalylacetate, it is particularly suitable for soap perfumes, and it offers interesting variations in the Bergamot theme particularly where Bergamot is used along with delicate florals (Muguet, etc.).
