Description

Hydroxy Citronellol is a soft and elegant floral fragrance material with a fresh, clean and muguet-like character. It has delicate green and slightly citrusy nuances that give compositions an airy and natural floral quality.

It is particularly useful for creating lily-of-the-valley, muguet, fresh floral and green accords. Hydroxy Citronellol can provide smoothness and volume to the floral heart while helping blend brighter top notes with deeper floral and musky ingredients.

Its clean character also makes it suitable for a wide range of personal-care and functional fragrance applications.

Perfumers' Tip
