Myrtenol is an excellent blender-modifier for Lavender, Citrus and Bay type fragrances, for Men’s Colognes, etc. and it gives attractive notes to Chypre or Oriental perfumes. The acetate, which represents the sweetness of the Myrtle oil, is also commercially available and is produced synthetically.
| | Production Methods | Myrtenol is produced from alpha- or beta-Pinene 1) by oxidation with Selenium oxide. 2) by chlorination via the acetate to the alcohol. Myrtenal is a by-product in this process.
