This ether, occasionally available, but rarely in a pure state, has been suggested for use in perfume compositions. It could be used in floral as well as in herbaceous types, since it blends equally well with Bergamot, Lavender, Clary Sage and with Amylsalicylate, Citronellol, Geraniol, Linalyl esters, etc.
Produced by isomerization of Geraniol in methylalcoholic environment. Several other methods are known and used.
