  • Applications

    beta-EUDESMOL (CAS 473-15-4) is a sesquiterpenoid alcohol with a warm, woody, slightly earthy–sweet odor; it is used in fragrance and cosmetic formulations as a base-note ingredient and fixative for perfumes, soaps, candles, and personal care products, and is occasionally added to flavor compositions to impart woody–herbal nuances where permitted; in research it serves as an analytical reference standard and marker compound for essential oils/herbal materials (e.g., Atractylodes), and has been investigated preclinically for anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and sedative-like activities, as well as insect-repellent/fungistatic potential in agrochemical studies; specific applications depend on local regulations, safety assessment, and formulation constraints (low water solubility, better stability in ethanol/oils, store sealed, cool, protected from oxidation).
