Nerol (CAS# 106-25-2) is a monoterpenoid alcohol with a refined floral–fruity character, clearly defined by fresh rose notes, a gentle sweetness, and a light citrus facet. Compared with Geraniol, Nerol feels softer, smoother, and less sharp, evoking the impression of “fresh rose on the stem” with a transparent citrus undertone. It is ideal for bright, airy, and modern fragrance concepts.
In perfumery, Nerol is widely used in rose, orange blossom, neroli, and muguet compositions, as well as in citrus–floral, fruity–floral, and premium cologne accords. It enhances naturalness, freshness, and a dewy, luminous effect in floral bases, and works particularly well alongside Citronellol, Geraniol, Phenethyl Alcohol, and other citrus materials. Nerol performs effectively in a broad range of applications, from fine fragrances and body sprays to personal care and home fragrance products.
As a relatively stable aromatic alcohol, Nerol has good solubility in ethanol and most common fragrance solvents, making it easy to incorporate into formulas and to blend with many olfactive families. With its balanced combination of freshness, softness, and natural floral character, Nerol is a fundamental yet highly valuable building block for perfumers developing rose, white-floral, or citrus–floral creations with a clean, elegant, and sophisticated profile.
