Cannabis can have a wide variety of fragrances and scents. In addition, the scent and fragrances depend widely on the terpene profile that a cannabis strain has.
Cannabis flowers exhibit a range of aromas depending on their trichome density and terpene composition. They can smell like citrus, cherries, or one of the industry’s most popular smells, diesel. Diesel or gassy cannabis strains are typically very aromatic and flavorful.
