The Science Behind Cannabis Fragrances
At Zip Cannabis, we’re passionate about helping our customers understand every aspect of their cannabis experience. Today, let’s dive into one of the most fascinating components of the cannabis plant: terpene compounds.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They’re responsible for the distinctive smells and flavors you experience in different strains. Some common cannabis terpenes include:
- Myrcene – earthy, musky notes
- Limonene – citrus aromas
- Pinene – pine and forest scents
- Linalool – floral, lavender-like fragrance
Why Terpenes Matter
Beyond providing pleasant aromas, terpenes play crucial roles in the overall cannabis experience. They work in harmony with cannabinoids to create what scientists call the “entourage effect.”
