What is that Smell?🌷

Traditionally, cannabis has been compared to the smell of skunk 👃Though this doesn't exactly sound appealing, who didn't love the little skunk, Flower, from Bambi 🌻🌼 Let's think about THAT kind of skunk 😉

Though the underlying aroma of cannabis does tend to be rather earthy, there is a whole lot more that goes into the science of what makes this plant smell so unique... and why that might be of interest to you. Terpenes are the fragrant oils that give cannabis it's aromatic diversity. These oils are secreted in the flower's sticky resin glands, the same ones that produce THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids. These different scents and flavor profiles can cause different effects on the mind and the body. Think: Essential Oils.

Scents and flavors of mint or peppermint are known to be soothing. Citrus and fruit flavors tend to be uplifting and energetic. Earthy aromas tend to make us relaxed and thoughtful. When choosing a strain that is right for you, consider the following charts and talk to us here at NoVa Hemp.
