Rhodinol is unsurpassed in floral beauty, providing an extremely rosy-floral, sweet and clean material as a base for many types of floral fragrance, particularly for Muguet.
Rhodinol is used as a sweet undertone in Strawberry, Raspberry, Currant, Honey, Grape and in fruit complexes, spice blends, Ginger Ale flavor, Chocolate imitation, etc.
Rhodinol is used in luxury Muguet perfumes and is preferred for its floral beauty over any grade of Citronellol.
