DIMETHYL BENZYL CARBINYL PROPIONATE

The fact that the odor of this ester is rather nondescript, not typically fruity, not clearly floral, and not reminiscent of one distinct natural product, has probably produced some difficulty in the extended use of D. M.B.C. propionate. It finds some use in perfumery for the more delicate and fruity floral types, such as Freesia, Sweet Pea, Peony, Magnolia, occasionally also as a modifier in Jasmin, Narcissus, etc. and in various fantasy fragrances.
