In continuation of studying structure/activity relationships of odorous compounds, the influence of the bridgehead‐bonded Me group of (+)‐norpatchoulenol ( 1 ) and (−)‐patchoulol ( 2 ) and the olfactory properties of the corresponding unsaturated and saturated derivatives (±) −3 , (±) −4 and (±) −5 , (±) −6 , respectively, are studied. The key odour descriptors‐wood, earth, and camphor‐are used for classification.
