Overview

About Citronellol in USA

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.

US buyers use these grades across cosmetics, flavor and fragrance formulation, with food-contact use governed by FDA rules and industrial use by TSCA. Los Angeles/Long Beach, New Jersey and Savannah are the main entry points; air freight runs 7-10 days and ocean 25-35 days from Indian west-coast ports.
