Tetrahydrolinalool is a constituent
of honey aroma. It is a colorless liquid with a linalool-like odor that is slightly
fresher but distinctly weaker than that of linalool. Tetrahydrolinalool is prepared
by catalytic hydrogenation of linalool and is used as a substitute for the less stable
linalool in perfuming aggressive media.
