General description:	Benzylideneacetone is used in the fragrance industry for its sweet pea-like odor. It is one of the major constituents of Monanthotaxis capea essential oil. Studies suggest that apart from skatole and androstenone, benzylideneacetone may also be one of the volatile compounds, which contributes to the development of boar taint in fat samples.
Other Notes:	Natural occurrence: Soybeans and Virginia tobacco.
