Overview

About Citronellol in Saudi Arabia

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.

Saudi Arabia is a fast-growing importer of essential oils and aroma chemicals for fragrance, food and personal care, with SASO and SFDA governing imports. Jeddah Islamic Port and Dammam's King Abdulaziz Port are the gateways; air freight runs 3-6 days and ocean 9-15 days.
