Methyl Salicylate (CAS 119-36-8) is a classic aroma chemical with the immediately recognizable scent of wintergreen: cool, minty, sweet and slightly medicinal, reminiscent of massage balms and mint lozenges. At low dosage, the odour profile becomes cleaner, fresher and more agreeable, combining a herbal-medicinal facet with a sweet, confectionery nuance that adds a very characteristic highlight to fragrance compositions.
In fine fragrances and home care products, Methyl Salicylate is typically used as an accent material for minty, sporty and “cooling effect” themes, or wherever a clean, medicinal freshness is desired. It blends particularly well with mint oils, eucalyptol, citrus notes, pine and resinous materials, helping to build vivid “cool” accords, bright fresh top notes, or compositions inspired by balms, steam rooms and spa atmospheres.
From a technical perspective, Methyl Salicylate is a colourless to pale yellow liquid with medium to high volatility, delivering strong diffusion from the top notes and sometimes extending into the heart depending on dosage. Even at low levels it is powerful enough to shift the overall character of a composition, while also helping to mask certain technical off-notes in solvent systems or base blends. It is a versatile choice for perfumers who want to introduce a cool, minty, modern medicinal effect that remains sweet, approachable and easy to wear.
