  • Applications

    Acorusnol (CAS 62311-70-0) is primarily used as an odorant/fragrance ingredient in perfumery and cosmetics, contributing delicate aroma notes; it may serve as a scent component in household cleaning products and other consumer formulations; it can function as a fixative to improve fragrance longevity in fragrance formulations; it may be employed as an intermediate in the synthesis of other fragrance-related or specialty chemicals in industrial manufacturing; and it is sometimes evaluated as a scent additive in coatings and inks, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
