Product name: Citronellol
English alias: 3,7-Dimethyl-6-octen-1-ol; β-Citronellol; Cephrol.
CAS: 106-22-9

Appearance: Colorless to yellowish oily liquid
Package: 25kg/drum
Citronellol is a a naturally occurring monoterpenoid alcohol that is a key constituent of rose and geranium essential oils. This compound is highly valued in the fragrance and flavor industry for its fresh, sweet, rosy aroma with subtle citrus undertones. It exists in two isomeric forms, with the β-form being more common and commercially significant. As a versatile ingredient, it serves not only as a fragrance but also as a starting material for the synthesis of other aroma compounds. Its relatively stable nature and pleasing scent profile make it indispensable in fine perfumery and cosmetic formulations.
