Miris
Detaljno
Zanimljivosti
Phenyl propanol is part of the phenylalkyl alcohol series (PEA, phenyl propanol, etc.) — each additional carbon in the side chain subtly changes the scent from floral-rosy (2-carbon, PEA) to balsamic-warm (3-carbon) to increasingly faint (longer chains). The series demonstrates how carbon chain length affects olfactory character.
