How it behaves

Descriptors
green

A fresh, green-floral material with a clean geranium-rose character softened by a smooth ester facet. The isopropoxyacetate group adds a slightly fruity, airy nuance that lifts the top and rounds out the sharper terpenic edges of geraniol.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Uses in perfumery

Although this material has been recommended for its fragrance, the author is of the impression that it has lost its importance - if it ever had any - as a fragrance material. It is simply too mild and nondescript, and the mild odor is not due to a particularly high boiling point.

Production

Produced by direct esterification.
