Applications
Geranyl hydroxybenzoate is used as an odorant in perfumery and may serve as a fixative in fragrance formulations. In cosmetics and personal care, it functions as a fragrance ingredient in creams, lotions, and other products. In household products such as air fresheners and cleaners, it provides scenting properties. In coatings, inks, and plastics, it can be used as a fragrance additive to impart a long-lasting aroma. In industrial manufacturing, it may be evaluated as a fragrance synthesis intermediate or formulation component in custom fragrance chemistries. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
