Description

Tetrahydro Geraniol is a soft floral alcohol with a clean, fresh and gently rosy character. Its odor profile combines floral and rose-like nuances with subtle citrus, green and slightly woody facets, creating a smooth and natural impression. Compared with sharper floral materials, it can contribute a softer and more rounded quality to a fragrance.

In perfumery, Tetrahydro Geraniol is useful for building rose, floral, fresh and clean accords. It can provide body to the floral heart while helping connect bright citrus and green top notes with softer base materials. Its balanced character makes it suitable for both classic and contemporary fragrance compositions.

It can also be used as a supporting ingredient in rose and geranium structures, where it helps create a smooth floral transition. When blended with other floral alcohols, citrus materials and modern musks, it can contribute to a clean and polished fragrance profile.

Perfumers' Tip

Tetrahydro Geraniol works well for creating a soft, clean floral heart. Combine it with Geraniol and Citronellol for a fuller rose effect, or use it with Linalool and Hedione for a lighter, transparent floral accord. Citrus materials can further emphasize its fresh side and provide a smooth transition from the top note.
