Meet the Terpenes: Linalool
Linalool brings floral sweetness and a softer middle to cannabis profiles, but it’s more complicated than “the lavender terpene.” We examine the research and ten current extracts rich in it.
Meet the Terpenes: Terpinolene
Terpinolene can smell like flowers, citrus, pine, herbs, and fruit all at once. We examine its contradictory reputation and ten current cannabis extracts rich in this unusually complex terpene.
Meet the Terpenes: Myrcene
Myrcene can give cannabis deep fruit, earth, herbs, and musky weight, but does it really cause couch lock or make mangoes enhance your high? We examine the evidence and ten current extracts loaded with it.
Meet the Terpenes: Limonene
Limonene brings citrus brightness and aromatic lift to cannabis, but it doesn’t always smell like lemons or guarantee an energetic high. We examine the chemistry and ten current Dope Depot extracts loaded with it.
Meet the Terpenes: Alpha-Humulene
Alpha-humulene is the dry, woody, hoppy terpene that helps give cannabis extracts structure.
In this Meet the Terpenes guide, we break down how alpha-humulene works alongside beta-caryophyllene, what it contributes to aroma and flavor, why the appetite-suppression claim needs a closer look, and which current Dope Depot Red Eye dabs, Gem Carts, and Pocket Puffers show the highest humulene levels in our SC Labs PhytoFacts data.

Beta-caryophyllene gives cannabis extracts their peppery, woody backbone, adding notes of black pepper, dry wood, herbs, resin, earth, and warm spice.
Today in our Meet the Terpenes series, we explain how beta-caryophyllene behaves in Red Eye dabs, Gem Carts, and Pocket Puffers, why it often appears alongside alpha-humulene, and which current Dope Depot products show the highest levels in our SC Labs PhytoFacts data.
