Phenethyl alcohol, or 2-phenylethanol, is an aromatic alcohol with a rosy scent. It is widely used in the food, fragrance, and cosmetic industries. It is used in the formulation of eye area makeup, skin care products, shampoos, perfumes, and colognes. Promising sources of natural 2-phenylethanol are microorganisms, especially yeasts, which can produce it by biosynthesis and biotransformation.
