Scents and Terpene Profiles


'Terpene' has become a popular term in recent years, particularly surrounding cannabis conversation. Terpenes are  highly aromatic molecular compounds found in the essential oils of plants. They are naturally occurring but many are synthesized for everyday use in candles, food, beverages, beauty products and more. They help to create or amplify different scents, flavors and effects. Terpenes are believed to have beneficial effects on the human body and are associated with boosting emotional wellbeing and brain function. Our terpene scent profiles are chosen as an ode to the cannabis plant and its luxurious scents and contain essential oils from around the world.
