Linalool

Linalool is something called a "terpene." It's found in some plants like lavender, mint, and citrus. You know how flowers and fruits smell really good? Well, terpenes are in charge of making those smells. Linalool specifically makes things smell flowery, like you're walking through a garden. It's often used in things like perfumes and candles to make them smell nice. Linalool can also help plants protect themselves from bad bugs, kind of like a shield. So, it's a really important and helpful substance!
