The classic strawberry aldehyde (Aldehyde C-16) — an intensely sweet, jammy strawberry-candy aroma with a slightly waxy, green edge. In dilution it reads as ripe cooked strawberry with a bubblegum/cotton-candy facet; overdosed it becomes cloying and synthetic.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Colorless oily liquid.
Almost insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Sweet-herbaceous odor reminiscent of sweet, semi-dried hay. Only mildly fruity notes are perceptible, the sweetness being more floral-ethereal than fruity, when the material is compared to the Ethyl methyl phenyl glycidate.
This glycidic ester has been suggested for use in perfume compositions of the herbaceous or herbaceous-floral character, supporting Ampylsalicylate, Lavender-Lavandin, Clary Sage, Terpineol, etc. It blends excellently with Anisaldehyde in Lilac or Fougéres.
Produced from Anisaldehyde plus Ethylmonochloroacetate and Sodium methylate.
