  • Applications

    4-(4-Methylpentyl)cyclohexan-1-one (CAS 14370-90-2) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient and odorant, functioning as a fixative to extend fragrance longevity in perfumery and fragrance formulations. In cosmetics and personal care, it can serve as a scent component in products such as soaps, shower gels, and moisturizers. In household and cleaning products, it appears as a scented additive in detergents, cleaners, and air fresheners. In industrial manufacturing, it may act as an intermediate or building block for the synthesis of other fragrance compounds. It is sometimes evaluated for use in coatings or inks to impart a scented profile or controlled aroma release, depending on formulation and regulatory constraints. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
