A soft woody-floral aromachemical (Verdox / Agrumex type) with a crisp, slightly fruity-pear character and a clean cedar-like undertone. Diffusive and airy, it bridges citrus tops with woody-floral hearts, adding lift and a rounded pine-forest freshness.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Appearance

Colorless, slightly viscous liquid.

Solubility

Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Sweet, musty-fruity, somewhat floral odor with a dry-green undertone.

Uses in perfumery

This ester has found a little use in perfume compositions, but it does not seem to have the ability to 'lift' fragrances the same way as the parent alcohol has.

Production

Produced by direct esterification of the alcohol with Acetic anhydride or with Acetic acid under azeotropic conditions.
