Sesquiterpene Body Notes
Sesquiterpene body notes refer to the deeper, often woody, earthy, or spicy aromatic character that emerges from heavier C15 terpenes like caryophyllene, humulene, and β-myrcene. These compounds typically develop more presence during later flower stages and cure, creating the sustained background aroma that persists after lighter top notes fade. Sesquiterpenes are commonly associated with cannabis profiles described as "full-bodied" or "complex." Breeders working in this category often track sesquiterpene-dominant lineages to establish consistent aromatic depth and stability across generations.

Sesquiterpene expression is often selected for in breeding programs targeting aromatic complexity and shelf-life stability. Lineage records frequently report that cultivars with pronounced sesquiterpene profiles maintain aroma integrity longer during storage and curing, making them valuable for preservation-focused breeding work.
