Woody Aroma Descriptor
Woody aroma descriptors refer to scent profiles commonly associated with cedarwood, sandalwood, pine, and aged wood notes in cannabis chemovars. These aromas frequently arise from terpene combinations including alpha-pinene, beta-myrcene, and sesquiterpenes such as caryophyllene and humulene. Woody character is often reported in older landrace populations and certain hybrid lineages developed from resinous parent genetics. Breeders working with woody profiles typically select for parent plants displaying these volatile compound profiles across multiple generations. The intensity and specific woody subtype (dry cedar versus fresh pine, for example) varies significantly between individual plants and grows.

Cannabis breeders actively work with woody aroma traits for flavor complexity and terpene diversity in new cultivars. Selecting parent plants with stable woody profiles helps establish consistent sensory characteristics across seed lines and clone-only releases.
