Scent & character
A floral material with rose, lavender, green and waxy associations. It gives a useful comparison with geraniol when learning how related material names can correspond to different odor profiles.
STUDY PROMPT
Make a paired blotter study with geraniol. Keep the strips physically separate and record the initial impression, then repeat after an interval using the same distance from each strip.
Materials to compare
Use these as starting points for separate blotter comparisons and small, documented studies. A pairing is a question to explore, not a finished formula.
Identity & reference names
CAS reference: 105-87-3. This identifies the reference chemical, not the composition or strength of every supplier product.

Record the exact material
Record the exact supplier product, grade, batch, and stock strength. Materials with similar names can have different composition and performance. Read the supplier documentation for your actual material before handling or using it.
Note placement describes a useful study role, not a precise evaporation clock. Dilution, the surrounding formula, and your own perception affect what you notice.
