Compounds that covaried with the aroma of lavender oils
A study of lavender (Lavandula officinalis) essential oils from five cities, using descriptive sensory analysis with six attributes (sweet, floral, woody, fruit, camphor and herb) and gas chromatography–olfactometry, found that limonene, linalool, linalyl acetate and camphor covaried with the oils' characteristic aroma.
Essential oils, not fresh or dried flowers; the link is a statistical covariation across samples, not a recombination test.
The statement the claim rests on was found word for word in the abstract fetched from the named service, and an editor read the full abstract against every part of the claim. Abstract from Europe PMC (ebi.ac.uk/europepmc).
