Linalool is a floral terpene with spicy overtones and an aroma reminiscent of lavender and lily of the valley. Strains known for their content of Linalool include UK Cheese, Chemdawg, and Skywalker OG. Isolated Linalool can be naturally sourced from a variety of plants, most commonly those in the mint family (Lamiaceae), the laurel family (Lauraceae), and the citrus fruits family (Rutaceae). Linalool is credited with being one of the most sedative, relaxing terpenes. Research has supported the effectiveness of Linalool as both an anti-anxiety and anticonvulsant agent. Linalool is anti-nociceptive (blocks the stimulus that causes us to feel pain) and anti-inflammatory. Studies have linked Linalool to decreased depression symptoms likely due to its amplification of serotonin-receptor transmission rates.
