  • Applications

    Citronellyl anthranilate (CAS 68555-57-7) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery, providing citrus-floral notes and acting as a fixative to extend fragrance longevity in formulations. It is also employed in cosmetics and personal care products to impart a scented profile, and in household products such as air fresheners and cleaners to contribute a fresh fragrance. Additionally, it may be evaluated for flavor/aroma applications in appropriate contexts within aroma chemistry, reflecting its odor-active ester character. Its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
