 iii) optionally at least one perfumery adjuvant. 
 
     
     
         2 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the compound of formula (I) is (−)-(8)-1-isopropoxy-1-oxopropan-2-yl pivalate. 
     
     
         3 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the compound of formula (I) is 1-isopropoxy-1-oxopropan-2-yl pivalate. 
     
     
         4 . A perfuming consumer product that contains at least one compound of formula (I), 
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
       
       in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof and in an amount sufficient to confer or impart floral odor properties to the perfuming consumer product. 
     
     
         5 . The perfuming consumer product of  claim 4 , which also contains at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of a perfumery carrier and a perfumery base.

       in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof and in an amount sufficient to confer or impart floral odor properties to the perfuming composition or perfuming consumer product. 
     
     
         10 . The invention of  claim 9 , wherein the perfuming composition is provided as a combination of the at least one compound of formula (I) and at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of a perfumery carrier and a perfumery base. 
     
     
         11 . The invention of  claim 9 , wherein the perfuming composition is provided as a combination of the at least one compound of formula (I), at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of a perfumery carrier and a perfumery base, and at least one perfumery adjuvant. 
     
     
         12 . The invention of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one compound of formula (I) is provided in a perfuming consumer product that is a perfume, a fabric care product, a body-care product, an air care product or a home care product.
