2906.29.10.00 - Phenethyl alcohol

This HTS category, 2906.29.10.00, specifically classifies Phenethyl alcohol. Phenethyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol characterized by its distinct rose-like odor, making it a valuable component in the fragrance and flavor industries. It is a single organic compound falling under the broader classification of aromatic cyclic alcohols.

This classification distinguishes Phenethyl alcohol from its sibling category, 2906.29.20.00, which covers "Other" odoriferous or flavoring compounds. While both fall under the same parent level for aromatic compounds, 2906.29.10.00 is reserved for the specific chemical entity of Phenethyl alcohol, whereas 2906.29.20.00 would encompass other aromatic cyclic alcohols used for their scent or taste that are not Phenethyl alcohol itself.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories under 2906.29.10.00. Classification at this level relies on the precise chemical identity of the substance. Therefore, any product meeting the chemical definition of Phenethyl alcohol, and primarily intended for use as an odoriferous or flavoring compound, would be classified here.
