  • Applications

    5-Epi-neointermedeol (CAS 5945-72-2) is a sesquiterpene alcohol used primarily as an odorant in perfumery, where it can contribute as a mid- to base-note and may provide a subtle fixative effect in formulations. In cosmetics and personal care, it appears as a fragrance ingredient in products such as creams, lotions, and soaps. In the flavor industry, it may be evaluated as an aroma note where permitted by regulation. In household products, it is sometimes incorporated into air fresheners and cleaners to impart a woodier, green aroma profile. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of other sesquiterpene aroma compounds, with usage limited by formulation needs and local regulations.
