Description and Uses

Phenylethyl alcohol is qualitatively and quantitatively one of the most important fragrance substances in the class of aliphatic alcohols. Phenylethyl alcohol is used frequently and in large amounts as a fragrance material. It is a popular component in rose-type compositions but is also used in other blossom notes. It is stable to alkali and, therefore, ideally suited for use in soap perfumes. Indeed, it could be used in fragrance, antimicrobial agents, organic synthesis, preservatives, and food additives.
