  • Applications

    3-Phenylprop-2-enyl nonanoate is the ester of nonanoic acid and cinnamyl alcohol. In fragrance and cosmetic industries it is used as an odorant and a fixative, helping to impart a balsamic floral note and to extend scent longevity in perfumes, personal care products, and some household scent formulations; it also serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of other fragrance compounds; it may be evaluated as a fragrance component in consumer products and may be used as a scent additive in plastics or coatings, depending on formulation requirements.
