Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Laevo Citronellol (or l-Citronellol) is the S-enantiomer of citronellol while Citronellol 98 is the racemic. For most of us that is not particularly important, but what it means in a real world application is that the more expensive nature-identical laevo type is far more beautiful and closer to the scent of rose than regular citronellol which has acessory notes of citrus. This is a prestige aroma chemical and Takasago is the superior manufacturer. We highly recommend it. You can use it one-for-one in place of Citronellol 98 for a more lush result. Laevo-Citronellol blends beautifully with Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol [https://fraterworks.com/products/phenyl-ethyl-alcohol], Geraniol Extra [https://fraterworks.com/products/geraniol-extra], Rose Oxide Laevo [https://fraterworks.com/products/rose-oxide-laevo], and Rhodinol ex Geranium Bourbon [https://fraterworks.com/products/rhodinol-ex-geranium-bourbon]. Laevo-Citronellol is suitable for fine fragrances, detergents and soaps. aromachem Best Seller Missing_EU/Specs MISSING_HS_CODE_ORIGIN missing_IFRA51 missing_info no_reg
