Geraniol, aptly named after the geranium plant, shares its captivating citrus and floral fragrance. This aromatic treasure graces diverse natural sources, including roses, lemongrass, citrus fruits, coriander, and certain berries.
Interestingly, geraniol isn't limited to the plant realm; some animals, like honey bees, naturally produce it. Bees utilize geraniol from their scent glands to identify nectar-bearing fruits and establish territorial boundaries. In a twist, a 2016 study showcased how E. coli bacteria could be engineered to produce more geraniol, holding promise for industrial use.
Beyond its aroma, geraniol holds natural insect-repelling properties, making it essential in bug sprays and citronella oil products. In cleaning items, its fragrance enhances scents, while disinfectant and pest-control attributes bolster efficacy.
The finesse of geraniol's floral notes has also made it a favorite in the fragrance industry, gracing perfumes, lotions, and candles. Its versatility shines across various domains.
Adding to its allure, geraniol boasts an impressive array of medicinal properties. Research demonstrates its efficacy as an anthelmintic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and even anti-cancer compound.
