Colorless liquid.
Practically insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, propylene glycol and oils.
Penetrating, gassy-green diffusive odor of poor tenacity. There are fruity undertones, but they appear only in proper dilution, when the pungent gassy green notes are subdued.

Produced by azeotropic type esterification of the alcohol (see monograph).
