Lavandulol is a monoterpene alcohol found in a variety of essential oils such as lavender oil.^[3] The term refers to either of two enantiomers. The (R)-enantiomer is natural and has an aroma described as "weak floral, herbal odor with slightly lemon-like, fresh citrus fruity nuance"; the (S)-enantiomer has only a weak odor.^[1]

Lavandulol and its esters are used in the perfume industry and have been identified as insect pheromones.^[4][5][6]
