Solution

Phenol is also known as, carbolic acid' cannot be considered as aromatic alcohol. It is quite separate branch of compound called phenols. So, compound (A) i.e. phenol and compound (D) i.e., a derivative of phenol cannot be considered as aromatic alcohol.
On the other hand, compound (B) and (C), - OH group is bonded to $s p^{3}$ hybridised carbon which inturn is bonded to benzene ring. Hence, the correct option is (c).
