Arctander seems quite enthusiastic: “this alcohol has been suggested for use in perfume compositions as a modifier for linaiool with certain advantages over that marerial. ethyl iinalool has a somewhat slower rate of evaporation and is easier to work with, needs only normal fixation, and blends with more materials. it introduces softer, more floral-woody, less citrusy notes, according to the composition in which it is used. along with ethyl iinalyl acetate, it forms a pleasant bergamot-type background note even in soap perfumes, a combination which is more stable than bergamot oil itself. the alcohol is also an interesting item in muguet, lilac, lily, appleblossom, etc. as well as in fantasy creations.”
