Limonene is a terpene found in many everyday items such as cleaning products, fruit rinds, and essential oils. As the name suggests, it smells of citrus.[1][2]

Strains with this terpene are said to improve mood, washing away stress. Limonene isolated by itself has been proven to be a great antifungal and antibacterial agent (hence the cleaning products).
