sabinene hydrate
sabinene hydrate is an oxygenated monoterpene (an alcohol, ester, oxide or ketone) — the group that carries much of an oil’s characteristic aroma and softer character. Across our dataset it was measured in 36 oils (317 samples), concentrating most in Marjoram, Oregano, Mountain savory.
