Linalool
Description: Linalool is a common synthetic aroma ingredient with intense floral, lavender and sweet notes at room temperature.

Newer derivatives, particularly the higher homologies of Linalool, are excellent modifiers/blenders with proper mellowing effect upon the more volatile Linalool.
