This is particularly felt in the personal care and cosmetics as well as the food industry where consumers are looking for safer alternatives to synthetic chemicals.
- Health and Eco-Friendly Benefits Driving Citronellol Preference: One of the factors that led to the consumption of citronellol natural variant rather than the synthetic one is the health of the consumer and the eco-friendly nature of the product citranelle and its compounds. The negative emotion aroused by the man-made chemical has been the reason why such oils have become available for aromatherapy and insect repellent creams as well as other household products.
- Growth of Aromatherapy and Wellness Practices Using Citronellol: The increasing market size of aromatherapy practices using citronellol oil will be another growth driver. People are looking for other methods of wellness aside from the standard ones, which creates demand for less harmful oils like citronellol more so. This also accounts for the upsurge in pursuits of wellness that have aromatic scents that are designed to entertain and/or promote good health.
- Shift Towards Natural Ingredients in Personal Care and Cosmetics: There is a shift in the focus of personal care and cosmetic products to the incorporation of naturally sourced constituents. In this line, Citronellol is preferred due to its appealing scent and being more skin-friendly, which suits the tastes of consumers who prefer ‘safer’ and more natural organic skin care and beauty products.
- Citronellol's Growing Role in Household Care Products: Lately, citronellol is a being widely accepted as an important component for use in household care products especially in the cleaning and air freshening activities. This is due to the fact that it has a natural insect repelling feature and a refreshing smell that appeals to many looking for effective as well as safe cleansing products.
- Rising Popularity of Citronellol in Aromatherapy and Wellness: A related growth in consumption of this ingredient can also be associated with the increased adoption of aromatherapy as citronellol has stabilizing and soothing properties. With increased use of essential oils by consumers, there is a growing awareness and a demand for the uses of citronellol as a relaxant and mood enhancer.
- Rise of Natural Plant-Derived Ingredients in Personal Care: Natural plant-derived ingredients are becoming a bigger trend in personal care products, and this provides a greater scope for the availability of citronellol. Most of the people want safer product alternatives, thus manufacturers can use citronellol as a perfume ingredient encouraging its use in skin and cosmetic products.
- Citronellol's Expanding Role in Home Fragrance Products: Growing trend of home fragrance products such as candles, diffusers and scented oil has enabled citronellol to seek for new markets. Besides its sweet smell, the other selling point of this product is its natural insect repellent which comes in handy to home users searching for affordable and nice smelling home remedies.
- Opportunities for Citronellol in the Growing Aromatherapy Market: The growing market for Aromatherapy is another effective market opportunity for citronellol.
