It worked as a blender in the heart, beside hydroxycitronellal and linalool. Its page records what it was and how to recognise it, not a current use.
Lilial is a synthetic material sold under a trade name; its IUPAC name is 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-2-methylpropanal. Formula C14H20O, molecular weight 204.31.
In the wear it sits in the heart. Its usual office is blender. The atlas files it under Floral, muguet.
It falls under the IFRA Standard “p-tert-Butyl-α-methylhydrocinnamic aldehyde (p-BMHCA)” (restriction, Amendment 49), which prohibits it in lipsticks and oral care products (IFRA Categories 1 and 6). Read the current Standard before use. It is one of the 26 fragrance allergens named in EU cosmetics law, declared on labels as BUTYLPHENYL METHYLPROPIONAL.
