Appearance

Colorless oily liquid.

Solubility

Practically insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.

Odor

Powerful and rich, sweet-herbaceous and fruity odor of good tenacity.

Uses in perfumery

The ester could find some use in perfumery as a modifier for Bergamot, Petitgrain, Neroli, Muguet, etc. and it gives very intriguing effects with Vetiver and Oakmoss for novel fragrance types.

Uses in flavor

In such case, we would have another interesting material for fondant flavor or soft candy, and a modifier for Bergamot in hard candy flavor.

Production

Produced by azeotropic esterification of Nerol with n-Valeric acid.
