Ocimene is a terpene that is found in cannabis and other plants and is responsible for some of the sweet flavors as well as citrusy, earthy, and woody undertones. Ocimene is used in the cosmetic industry to add fragrance but is also shown to have potential health benefits in cannabis. Ocimene is not the most abundant terpene in cannabis although it can be the 2nd or 3rd most abundant in some strains.
