Miris

Soft rosy-floral with fresh, citrus-lemony brightness. More delicate than geraniol — less sweet, more watery, slightly greener. The rose quality is sheer and transparent rather than full-bodied. A clean, almost aqueous freshness distinguishes it from heavier terpenols. On blotter, moderate tenacity with clean, pleasant fade.

Detaljno

CAS 106-25-2. The cis-isomer of geraniol. A monoterpene alcohol found in rose, neroli, lemongrass, and many other essential oils. Nerol and geraniol are geometric isomers — same molecular formula, different spatial arrangement — resulting in subtly different scents.

Nerol is softer, fresher, and more watery than geraniol. Where geraniol reads as 'rose-sweet,' nerol reads as 'rose-fresh.' The molecule has a delicate, almost aqueous quality with a lemony brightness that geraniol lacks. This freshness comes from the cis-configuration, which affects how the molecule interacts with olfactory receptors.

In perfumery, nerol provides a lighter, more transparent version of the rose-citrus character. It is used where geraniol would be too heavy or too sweet — in clean-floral, citrus-floral, and fresh compositions.

Dobijanje i hemija

Način dobijanja

Isolated from essential oils (neroli, rose, lemongrass) by fractional distillation, or produced synthetically from myrcene or geraniol via isomerization. The name 'nerol' derives from neroli oil, where it was first characterized. Both natural and synthetic routes are commercially relevant.

U parfemima

Heart modifier in rose, citrus-floral, and fresh compositions. Nerol provides a lighter, more transparent version of geraniol's rose character. It works in fresh-rose accords, citrus-floral blends, and compositions where floral softness without heaviness is desired. The cis-isomer's freshness makes it particularly useful in eau de cologne and eau fraiche formulations. Pairs with linalool, citral, and other terpene alcohols.
