Description

Geraniol Pure is one of the most important floral aroma chemicals used in modern perfumery. It has a beautiful, recognizable fresh rosy and geranium-like character, supported by soft citrus, green and slightly sweet nuances.

Geraniol occurs naturally in several essential oils, including rose, geranium and citronella-type oils. Its clean and elegant floral character makes it an essential building block for creating realistic rose and floral accords.

In perfumery, Geraniol Pure is widely used in rose, geranium, floral, citrus-floral and fresh compositions. It can provide floral body to a fragrance while adding brightness and natural freshness.

The material is also useful for balancing compositions, helping connect fresh citrus top notes with floral heart materials and softer musky or woody bases.

Perfumers' Tip

Geraniol Pure is an excellent foundation for a fresh, natural rose accord. Combine it with Citronellol and Phenethyl Alcohol for a fuller rose character, or add Citral and citrus oils for brightness. Linalool and Hedione can increase freshness and diffusion, while white musks can provide a clean, smooth finish.
