When I don‘t need to look on the price and I guess hobby perfumers don‘t need it, I would use L-Citronellol instead of racemic Citronellol (the regular quality). At a time when chemical industry wasn‘t yet able to supply huge quantities of monoterpenic aroma chemicals (it starts after world war II), perfumery Citronellol rich fractions of Geranium Oil, which is almost identical with L-Citronellol. It is much more natural soft rosy/floral and lacks the soapy fattiness of the rac. version. Very versatile and delicate.
