The terpene profile of this Chef may offer a happy, upbeat experience with a warm, grounded undertone.
Leading the profile by a wide margin is β-caryophyllene, a peppery, spicy terpene also found in black pepper and cloves. As the only terpene known to interact directly with the body's CB2 receptors, it could bring a settling, body-soothing quality.
Limonene follows with a bright citrus character found in lemon and orange rinds, and may lift the mood with a cheerful, sunny energy.
Linalool adds a floral, lavender-like note long valued in aromatherapy, and could help ease tension and quiet a busy mind.
α-Humulene, the earthy terpene that gives hops their woody bite, may support a sense of physical comfort and is also purported to have appetite-suppressing effects.
A varied supporting cast rounds out the profile. α-Pinene and β-pinene carry the crisp scent of pine needles and rosemary, while terpineol lends a lilac-like softness. α-Bisabolol, the gentle compound found in chamomile, may add a calming touch, myrcene brings a musky sweetness also found in mangoes, and ocimene, a sweet, herbaceous terpene found in mint, parsley, and orchids, adds a fresh brightness. Fenchol contributes a basil-like herbal note. Trace amounts of borneol (used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine), caryophyllene oxide, and camphene (also found in fir needles) add subtle depth to this cheerful profile.
