Naturally Fragrant and Skin-Conditioning

Geraniol is a naturally occurring compound found in the essential oils of flowers like rose, geranium, and citronella. Recognized for its fresh, sweet floral aroma, it’s widely used in skincare for fragrance enhancement—but it also offers subtle skin benefits.

As a monoterpenoid alcohol, Geraniol has mild antibacterial and antioxidant properties, which can support skin health and help protect against environmental stress. It’s often included in formulations containing natural essential oils and is valued for its ability to uplift scent profiles with a soft, rosy note.

However, it’s important to note that Geraniol is also a potential allergen for sensitive individuals, and its presence must be listed when used in EU-regulated cosmetics. When properly formulated and used at low concentrations, it adds elegance and olfactory appeal without overwhelming the skin.
