Geraniol is an olefinic terpene, constituting the chief part of rose oil and oil of palmarosa. It is also found in many other essential oils such as citronella, lemon grass, or ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata Hook.f. and Thoms.). It is contained in most fine fragrances and in “fragrance mix.” As a fragrance allergen, geraniol has to be mentioned by name in cosmetics within the EU.
