Every one of its 15 compounds carries a paper the library can cite.

• linaloolaromaalcoholreads as spicy, citrus taste (PubChem)Measured in 91 of 338 ingredients.cite

  36.79% of the reference hydrosol (absolute content 1.5674 mg/kg), the largest constituent; odour activity value 7124.55 in that hydrosol and 9427.73 / 15778.182 / 14134.545 in the other three, the highest OAV in the study — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1 (Analysis of the volatile components of CAVA IH), row 'Linalool'; Table 6 (OAV analysis of volatile components of hydrosols), row 'Linalool')
• alpha-terpineolaromaalcoholreads as floral, lilac (PubChem)Measured in 54 of 338 ingredients.cite

  9.42% of the reference hydrosol (0.4013 mg/kg), the second-largest constituent; OAV 0.334-0.613 across the four hydrosols — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'α-Terpineol'; Table 6, row 'α-Terpineol')
• myrcenearomaterpenoidreads as pleasant (PubChem)Measured in 68 of 338 ingredients.cite

  1.80% of the reference hydrosol (0.0769 mg/kg); OAV 64.083 there and 67.500 / 47.500 / 36.250 in the other three — the second-highest OAV in the study despite being a minor constituent by mass — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'β-Myrcene'; Table 6, row 'β-Myrcene')
• 2-carenearomaterpenoidMeasured in 5 of 338 ingredients.cite

  0.64% of the reference hydrosol (0.0275 mg/kg); OAV 0.743 there and 0.919 in the CAVA ultrasound-microwave hydrosol, undetected in both CADB hydrosols — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row '2-Carene'; Table 6, row '2-Carene')
• spathulenolaromaalcoholMeasured in 13 of 338 ingredients.cite

  4.55% of the reference hydrosol (0.1937 mg/kg); no odour threshold was found for it, so Table 6 reports no OAV — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'Spathulenol'; Table 6, row 'Spathulenol')
• 1,3,8-p-MenthatrienearomaterpenoidMeasured in 4 of 338 ingredients.cite

  0.55% of the reference hydrosol (0.0235 mg/kg); listed in Table 6 as specific to the CAVA hydrosols, with no threshold and therefore no OAV — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row '1,3,8-p-Menthatriene'; Table 6, row '1,3,8-p-Menthatriene')
• D-limonenearomaterpenoidreads as citrus odor (PubChem)Measured in 10 of 338 ingredients.cite

  2.20% of the reference hydrosol (0.0937 mg/kg); OAV 2.756 there and 3.015 / 1.365 / 0.912 in the other three — one of only five compounds in the study with an OAV above 1 — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'D-Limonene'; Table 6, row 'D-Limonene')
• geraniolaromaalcoholreads as sweet rose odor (PubChem)Measured in 26 of 338 ingredients.cite

  7.32% of the reference hydrosol (0.3119 mg/kg); OAV 41.587 there and 45.507 / 64.867 / 47.880 in the other three — one of the three compounds the paper reports with OAV above 10 — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'trans-Geraniol'; Table 6, row 'trans-Geraniol')
• nerolaromaalcoholreads as sweet rose (PubChem)Measured in 13 of 338 ingredients.cite

  1.97% of the reference hydrosol (0.0841 mg/kg); OAV 0.124-0.316 across the four hydrosols — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'Nerol'; Table 6, row 'Nerol')
• neryl acetatearomaterpenoidMeasured in 12 of 338 ingredients.cite

  1.52% of the reference hydrosol (0.0647 mg/kg); OAV 0.032 there, and 0.003-0.030 in the other three — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'Neryl acetate'; Table 6, row 'Neryl acetate')
• geranyl acetatearomaterpenoidreads as odor of lavender (PubChem)Measured in 24 of 338 ingredients.cite

  2.50% of the reference hydrosol (0.1066 mg/kg), its largest ester; OAV 0.711 there, falling to 0.049 in the CADB ultrasound-microwave hydrosol — Xie et al. 2024, Molecules (Table 1, row 'Geranyl acetate'; Table 6, row 'Geranyl acetate')
• β-caryophyllene oxidearomaetherMeasured in 19 of 338 ingredients.cite
