Neryl acetate is a terpenoid found in citrus oils. It is the acetate ester of nerol, a diastereomer (or geometric isomer) of the more common fragrance geranyl acetate.{{cite book |doi=10.1002/0471238961.2005181602120504.a01.pub2|chapter=Terpenoids |title=Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology |year=2006 |last1=Sell |first1=Charles S. |isbn=0471238961 }} In flavors and perfumery it is used to impart floral and fruity aromas.[http://www.takasago.com/cgi-bin/detail.cgi?key=C119393 Neryl acetate], takasago.com
