What is Dihydrocarveol?
Chemical properties
Dihydrocarveol has a spearmint-like odor.
Occurrence
Reported found (free or esterified) in the essential oils Mentha longifolia, Mentha verticillata, Artemisia juncea, caraway (Mentha virdis var. sativa) cultivated in Calabria, spearmint oil and spearmint scotch oil. Also reported found in black tea, dill herb, celery leaf and stalk, caraway seed and rosemary.

Occasionally used in perfume compositions, mainly as a trace ingredient in heavy floral types, Gardenia, Tuberose, and in Geranium bases, woody complexes, etc. It blends well with the lonones, Sandalwood oil, the “Rose” alcohols, etc. This alcohol finds more usc in flavor compositions, mainly for imitation Pepper, Caraway, Mint (compositions), Spice blends and in various Liqueur flavors. The concentration in aicoholic beverages may be as high as 500 ppm.
Definition
ChEBI: A p-menthane monoterpenoid that is the dihydro derivative of carveol.
