Warm, sweet, rooty-fruity odor of moderate to poor tenacity. Pungent-sweet, fruity-rooty odor with burning sensation at high concentration. As a result of the subconscious reaction in people who are regular users of candy, flavored with Methylsalicylate, or dentifrice etc., the comment “minty” is often used for description of the flavor or odor of this ester. The most reliable judges for odor description are those who are not users of the item as a flavor. ln fact, the title material is a typical example of an aroma-chemical with widely different end-use% and, consequently, having widely different descriptions of its odor and flavor attached to it. Since the material was used mainly as an industrial masking odor in Europe (perfuming of gummed paperstrips, labels, glue, etc.), while it was originally (in the shape of natural Wintergreen oil) an American flavor, an American-Indian Tea, a folksmedicine, and later, the most popular chemical flavoring agent for candy and soft drinks through many decades - the ester will obviously have very different odor/flavor descriptions in different countries.

salicylaldehyde

medical spicy cinnamon wintergreen cooling

Medicinal, spicy cinnamon-wintergreen like cooling note

Pungent, irritating odor reminiscent of Benzaldehyde, Acetophenone and Nitrobenzene, but with distinct halogeno-phenolic notes. Maurer (103-298) that the common description “pleasant floral New-Mown-Hay odor” is not only misleading, but also very incomplete. Even if the odor would be generally described as “pleasant and floral”, one should avoid phrases which almost imply or encourage a use of a hazardous material. In extreme dilution, the odor is warm, herbaceous, spicy-floral but the phenolic note remains perceptible

naphthalene

pungent dry tarry

Pungent, choking dry-tarry odor of moderate to poor tenacity. The fact that wool, impregnated with Naphthalene vapors will smell of “Naphthalene” for a very long time is based on the presence of impurities of lower vapor pressure in commercial grade Naphthalene. Naphthalene is not used as such in perfume compositions, but it may occur as an impurity, or it may appear as a material of undesirable odor to be overcome by a masking composition. Naphthalene has been used as such for masking of unpleasant odors, but the author finds it questionable whether the Naphthalene odor is really preferred (by the majority of the public) as more acceptable than the odors which it is supposed to overcome
