  • Applications

    Cyclohexyl cinnamate (CAS 7779-17-1) is a cinnamate ester used primarily as an odorant and fixative in perfumery and cosmetics. It is commonly evaluated as an intermediate in the synthesis of other aroma compounds. In industrial applications, it may be added to household and cleaning products to impart fragrance; it is also used as a fragrance component in coatings and inks for scent-enhanced formulations. Its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
