  • Applications

    6-(Isopropyl)-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl acetate (CAS 1204-30-4) is a fragrance-related ester used primarily as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery, functioning as an odorant and, in some formulations, as a fixative. In cosmetics and personal care, it is employed as a fragrance component in products such as moisturizers, shampoos, and deodorants to impart green, herbal, and fresh notes. In household products, it serves as a scent additive for detergents, cleaners, and air fresheners. It may be used as an aroma compound in flavor formulations in select applications and is considered an intermediate in the synthesis of related odor-active molecules. In industrial manufacturing, it can be sourced or synthesized to support the development of desired scent profiles for consumer products.
