Farnesol, a sesquiterpene alcohol with the molecular formula C15H26O, is a naturally occurring compound found in a wide array of plant essential oils, such as those from citronella, lemon grass, roses, and many other plants. Its structure, characterized by a 15-carbon skeleton typical of sesquiterpenes and an alcohol functional group, allows it to participate in various biological processes and applications, especially in the realm of fragrance and flavor industries due to its pleasant, floral scent.
