Paracymene is used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes, soaps, and cosmetics due to its pleasant odor. It also serves as a solvent and an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals. Paracymene is employed in the production of resins, antioxidants, and pharmaceuticals. It is a colorless liquid with a characteristic aromatic smell.
