Hexyl tiglate finds a little use in perfumery as ingredient in novel green type topnotes and in fresh smelling 'natural' or 'outdoor' odors for Colognes and sprays. lts main use is, however, in flavor compositions, where it may introduce freshness to fruity and green-fruity compositions of many types. It gives richness to Apple flavor and Apricot or Mango, it supports the ethereal and light notes in Gooseberry and Strawbemy, and it lends a natural “skin’’-aroma to Plum flavors, etc. For the skilled flavorist, this ester is a material with a multitude of possibilities.
