What is it?

Linalool is a naturally occurring aromatic compound derived from essential oils. It is a terpene alcohol found in many plants, including lavender, coriander, and rosewood. Chemically, it exists as two enantiomeric isomers, S and R forms, both of which are found in plants. Linalool is widely used in personal care products for its pleasant floral scent, which is often described as fresh, clean, and reminiscent of lavender with a slight citrus edge.

Where does it come from?

Linalool is naturally sourced from various essential oils, such as those from lavender, coriander, Ho wood, and rosewood. It was initially discovered in the Bursera tree, also known as Linaloe, which is the origin of its name. In addition to its use in cosmetics, linalool is found in many flowers and edible plants used as spices.
