Homogeraniol is a naturally occurring compound that belongs to the class of terpenoids, specifically a type of alcohol. It is structurally related to geraniol, a well-known aromatic compound with a floral scent commonly found in essential oils such as rose and citronella. Homogeraniol is found in certain plants and has been investigated for its potential antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, it may be used in the fragrance industry due to its pleasant odor, although its specific applications are less common compared to other terpenoids.
