  • Applications

    p-Menthan-7-ol (CAS 5502-75-0) is primarily used as an aroma chemical in perfumery, serving as an odorant or fragrance component and, in some cases, as a fixative within menthane-based scent formulations. It is often evaluated for use as a flavor note in the development of minty or camphor-like profiles. In cosmetics and personal care, it may appear as a fragrance ingredient in products such as lotions, creams, and soaps. In household products, it can be incorporated into air fresheners and cleaners to impart characteristic fragrance. It also functions as an industrial intermediate for the synthesis of other menthane-derived compounds used in chemical manufacturing, coatings/inks, and related specialty chemicals. As with all such materials, its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
