  • Applications

    2,4,8-Trimethylnona-3,7-dien-2-OL (CAS 479547-57-4) is a terpene-like alcohol commonly used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and cosmetics. It is often employed as a scent component in personal care products and household formulations due to its aroma profile. Given its aroma characteristics, it may be considered for aroma/flavor applications in permitted food-related contexts and can serve as an intermediate in the industrial synthesis of other fragrance materials. In industrial manufacturing, it can act as a precursor or building block for the synthesis of additional fragrance-related chemicals; use should comply with local regulations and formulation limits.
