About this composition
This alias record uses the same public Spain rosemary camphor-type GC/MS evidence as the archive's other camphor-type rosemary entry. The reviewed lots are led by alpha-pinene, 1,8-cineole, and camphor, with camphene, limonene, beta-pinene, myrcene, and para-cymene as the next quantified markers. The full peak-report table from the same Lotus Garden Botanicals RMYCM623EO77 certificate of analysis additionally quantifies alpha-terpineol, beta-caryophyllene, borneol, bornyl acetate, verbenone, tricyclene, linalool, and gamma-terpinene, which are now included to raise mass-balance closure.

These uses reflect the profile's reported traditions and literature. They are not established treatment recommendations.
- traditionally used in aromatherapy to support mental clarity, focus, and alertness
- used in massage blends for muscle comfort after activity
- traditionally associated with supporting circulation when used in topical blends
- used in hair-care blends for a traditional scalp-invigorating reputation

What we're still learning · 3 data gaps
Good decisions start with knowing what is — and isn't — in the evidence.
- Odor intensity 65 is an archive normalization of AromaWeb's qualitative 'Medium - Strong' aroma-strength descriptor rather than a source-native 0-100 measurement.
- No directly measured public volatility-rate or tenacity-hour values were verified in this pass.
- Remaining ~2.4% of the CoA peak-report area is spread across many trace-level unidentified and sub-0.6% named peaks not individually added.
