Neryl formate is used occasionally in perfume compositions for its delicately green-leafy floral effect, equally suitable for Rose and Violet. Clary Sage and Rose materials may create very attractive tearose notes. The ester is also used in flavour compositions, mainly in imitation Apricot, Peach, Apple, and Pineapple and in fruit and Citrus complexes at concentrations equal to 5 to 25 ppm in the finished product.
