smelling (4R)-(-)-menthen-4-ol, an intense

dominate the flowery tonality (from Delay &
Ohloff).

(4R)-(+)-terpinen-4-ol
- musty ( odor evaluation by GC-olfactometry by
Nishimura); commercially available
(+)-menthen-4-ol is known to have a warm,
peppery, mildly earthy, musty-woody odor of
moderate tenacity. The earthy-musty notes are
pleasantly green. Its flowery character
resembles that of alpha-terpineol (from Delay
& Ohloff).
