According to what I've been reading vaporists in Colorado are experimenting in this area attempting to isolate the best "turps".
"Terpenoids and cannabinoids are both secreted inside the Cannabis plants glandular trichomes and they have a parent compound in common (geranyl pyrophosphate). More than 100 terpenoids have been identified in Cannabis. The most common and most studied include limonene, myrcene, alpha-pinene, linalool, beta-caryophyllene, caryophyllene oxide, nerolidol and phytol. Anecdotal evidence suggests that alpha-pinene is alerting, limonene is sunshine-y, and beta-myrcene is sedating.
Limonene (also found in lemon)
Alpha-pinene (also found in pine needles)
Beta-myrcene (also found in hops and mango)
Linalool (also found in lavender)
Beta-Caryophyllene (also found in pepper and Echinacea)
Caryophyllene Oxide (also found in lemon balm)
Nerolidol (also found in orange)
Phytol (found in green tea)"
