Used in the fragrance industry as a key ingredient in floral and fruity scent formulations due to its fresh, green, and slightly waxy odor profile. Commonly found in perfumes, soaps, detergents, and cosmetics to enhance scent complexity and provide a natural green note. Also serves as a semiochemical in agricultural applications, where it functions as a pheromone analog to disrupt mating behaviors of certain insect pests, supporting integrated pest management strategies. Its (Z)-configuration is critical for biological activity in such applications.
