  • Applications

    epi-Cubebol (CAS 38230-60-3) is a fragrance-active sesquiterpene commonly encountered in essential oils such as cubeb oil. In practical formulations, it may be used as an odorant and fragrance ingredient in perfumery and in cosmetics/personal care products. It may also function as a scent component in household cleaners and air fresheners. In flavor/aroma applications, the compound has been evaluated as a potential aromatic additive for foods and beverages (where permitted by regulations). Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of fragrance compounds in industrial manufacturing.
