This ester is used occasionally in perfume compositions for its delicately green-leafy, floral effect, equally suitable for Rose and for Violet. With Clary Sage and Rose materials it may create very attractive tearose notes.
The ester is also used in flavor compositions, mainly in imitation Apricot, Peach, Apple, Pineapple and in fruit and Citrus complexes at concentrations equal to 5 to 25 ppm in the finished product.
Produced by cold formylation of Nerol.
