The ester is occasic nally used in flavor compositions, mainly imitation Honey, where it can help tone down the rather pungent notes of the conventional Methyl- and Ethyl phenylacetates. Higher esters of Phenoxyacetic acid are also used in Honey - for perfumes andflavors, and some of them find their way into Styrax-bases.
