Overview

About Citronellol in Australia

Citronellol is a monoterpene alcohol found in citronella and geranium oils, offering a fresh, floral, rose-like character with a subtle citrus-mint lift. It is widely used alongside geraniol to soften and round floral accords, and contributes the clean rosy freshness expected in personal-care fragrance.

Zentish Exim supplies citronellol from qualified Indian producers, minimum 95% assay by GC, with complete batch documentation.

Australia has an established market for these ingredients in cosmetics, food and pharmaceutical use, regulated under AICIS (formerly NICNAS) for industrial introduction. Most Chapter 33/29 oils and aroma chemicals enter duty-free. Sydney (Port Botany), Melbourne, Brisbane and Fremantle are the main ports; air freight runs 5-8 days and ocean 18-28 days.
