This ester finds a little use in perfume compositions. It is very suitable for classical Chypre types, tabac notes and powder perfumes, where its warmth and great tenacity are welcome. Oriental rose bases and tabac-rose types may include this material in its undertones and fixative portion. It blends very well with the Phenylacetates and Civet, Styrax, Castoreum, Patchouli, etc. for heavy floral-balsamic fragrances.
Produced by azeotropic esterification of Santalol with n-Butyric acid.
