Citronellol
Citronellol is a monoterpenoid found in natural sources such as citronella plants, roses, and geranium. This terpenoid is most distinguished by its sweet, floral scent that’s credited with giving roses their enticing aroma. Some have described citronellol’s taste as peachy with slightly bitter notes. Citronellol is a transparent to pale-yellow liquid when isolated.

Uses
Citronellol is most commonly used in households as a mosquito repellant. Unfortunately, while it does repel mosquitos, it attracts other insects such as mites. As a repellent, the terpenoid is most effective at close ranges and for that reason is best when used in mosquito repellant sprays or wearables. The most common use for citronellol is in cosmetics and bath products. In particular, it is used to enhance the rosey scent of shampoos, soaps, perfumes, and conditioners.
