A rare variety of camphor, {C10H17.OH}, resembling ordinary
camphor, from which it can be produced by reduction. It is
said to occur in the camphor tree of Borneo and Sumatra
({Dryobalanops camphora}), but the natural borneol is rarely
found in European or American commerce, being in great
request by the Chinese. Called also {Borneo camphor}, {Malay
camphor}, and {camphol}.
