Citronellol, with its scientific designation as C10H20O, is a naturally occurring compound found in the essential oils of rose, geranium, and citronella. The discovery of Citronellol dates back to the late 19th century when it was first identified as a crucial component contributing to the characteristic scents of many flowers and plants. Its name, derived from citronella, reflects its significant presence in the citronella plant, famed for its potent aroma and use in repelling insects.
Citronellol is esteemed in the cosmetic and skincare industry for its fragrant properties and efficacy in formulations. Beyond its captivating scent, it is recognized for its potential to soothe and improve the skin's condition.
