Camphor Aroma
Camphor aroma is a sharp, medicinal scent profile commonly associated with certain cannabis chemotypes and terpene combinations, particularly those rich in eucalyptol and 1,8-cineole. Lineage records frequently report this classification in strains descended from Southeast Asian and high-altitude landrace genetics, where cooling, penetrating odor notes dominate the volatile compound profile. The camphor signature often appears alongside piney and herbal descriptors, creating a distinctly clinical sensory impression. Breeders working with camphor-forward phenotypes typically observe this trait clustering with specific terpene ratios rather than single dominant compounds. This classification remains useful in cannabis taxonomy for identifying chemotype diversity within broader strain families.

Breeders intentionally select for or against camphor notes depending on target flavor profiles and market positioning. Understanding camphor expression helps geneticists map recessive aroma traits and develop consistent phenotype stability across generations.
