From HandWiki

Hydrocinnamaldehyde is the organic compound with the formula C6H5CH2CH2CHO. It is produced by the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. The compound is used in many mechanistic studies.[1] It is a common substrate in organic synthesis.[2][3]

It is used in flavours and fragrances for its "fresh, cortex, green, leafy, foliage, balsamic, storax, aldehydic, floral, melon" aroma.[4]
