Dihydrofarnesol

Dihydrofarnesol, also known as 3,7,11-trimethyldodeca-6,10-dien-1-ol, is an organic chemical compound used in several industries, most notably in cosmetics and fragrances. It is a semi-solid substance of colorless to pale yellow color with a delicate but impressive odor. Dihydrofarnesol is derived from farnesol, one of the main ingredients in many essential oils such as rose and lavender oils. It is also synthesized in laboratories for commercial use.

The main application of dihydrofarnesol is in the field of perfumes and cosmetics, where it is valued for its pleasant, floral, yet non-violent aroma. It is often used as an ingredient in small quantities in the manufacture of perfumes, hair products, body lotions, deodorants and other similar products in order to enhance their appeal to consumers. In addition to its use in the cosmetics industry, dihydrofarnesol is also used in the food industry as a natural flavouring and in some cases is being considered for medical use, for example in antibacterial products. Although dihydrofarnesol is considered a safe substance, it may cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Therefore, reasonable caution in its use is important.
