Description
While both compounds can occur in citrus oils, they are chemically different. Dimethyl anthranilate is known for its grape like scent, while d-limonene is known for its citrus scent. When seeing these two listed together, it is most likely referring to the fact that they are both components that can be found in citrus based essential oils. It is important to understand the difference between the two compounds, due to their differing chemical properties, and usages.
