Arctander tells us that “this material was made commercially available in 1966 at a time when lavandin oil was scarce and expensive. any material that could help improve an artificial lavandin or lavender was of immediate interest. however, this material has found uses far beyond lavandin, lavender and bergamot … if increased use result in volume production, one may justly assume that this material can be produced at a much more attractive price and thus come into entirely new fields of perfumery application.”
