A green-floral ester with a rosy, geranium-like character overlaid by a tart, slightly fruity tiglate freshness. Feels natural and leafy, like crushed geranium stems with a hint of unripe fruit skin, softening into a clean rose-petal facet.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Colorless oily liquid, practically insoluble in water.
Soluble in alcohol and oils.
Very pleasant, sweet-herbaceous, Geranium-like and fruity odor. The Geranium notes resemble the middle and late notes in natural Geranium, and the fruity notes are deep, almost jam-like, tenaciously sweet, yet an overall refreshing odor with a touch of leafiness.
The ester finds increasing use in perfumery (as its price becomes more attractive) not only in artificial Geranium, but widely in cosmetic Rose fragrances, in Lavender bouquets, Oriental bases, etc.
Produced from Geraniol and Tiglyl chloride in an inert volatile solvent and using a Pyridine type catalyst.
