  • Applications

    3-Methylcyclopentadecan-1-ol, CAS 62151-56-8, is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery, functioning as an odorant and, due to its long aliphatic cyclopentadecyl structure, may act as a fixative in formulations; in cosmetics and personal care, it is regarded as a fragrance component for products such as creams and balms; in industrial manufacturing, it is commonly employed as an intermediate for synthesizing fragrance compounds or related esters; in household and cleaning products, it may appear as a fragrance additive to impart a lasting scent.
