У парфумерії
Lilac alcohol, dimethyl sulfide, acetaldehyde, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 3-methylbutanal, (E)-2-hexenal and benzaldehyde, all volatiles of sweet cherry flowers, can be employed in natural floral flavors. 3-Methylbutanal is mainly used to formulate various fruit flavors. (E)-2-hexenal can be used as a blending fragrance for essential oils and various floral fragrances. Coumarin, the compound credited with the vanilla-like smell, is subject to restrictions on its use in perfumery.
