Delta-3-Carene

Aroma: Sweet, cedar, cypress, pungent

Overview

Delta-3-carene is a bicyclic monoterpene with a sweet, pungent aroma reminiscent of cedar, cypress, and pine. It is notable for its potential role in bone health — research suggests it may stimulate bone growth and repair, making it relevant for conditions like osteoporosis. Delta-3-carene is also known for its drying effect on mucous membranes, which may explain why some cannabis strains cause dry mouth and red eyes more than others.
