Indica leaning terpene profiles are known for their deep, rich, earthy, berry and dessert inspired aromas.
Although the traditional cannabis meaning of an indica terpene refers to plant structure, not aroma, terpene enthusiasts across the UK now use the term to describe a particular scent category.
These profiles often feature darker fruit notes, warm spice, creamy layers or gas like undertones.
This guide explores three of the most recognised indica inspired terpene profiles found in CBD and CBG vape liquids today: Granddaddy Purple, Gorilla Glue and the cannabis derived terpene blend present in Oreoz.

Indica leaning terpene profiles tend to highlight earthy tones, musky sweetness, berry notes or dessert like aromas.
They commonly include heavier indica terpene notes such as myrcene, linalool, humulene, nerolidol and beta caryophyllene.
These indica terpene blends create dense and complex aromas that sit lower in the fragrance spectrum, contrasting with the bright citrus or tropical notes associated with sativa leaning blends.
Many UK consumers describe indica terpene inspired profiles as full bodied, rich or layered.
This is one reason they are frequently chosen by adults who want a deeper aromatic experience compared to fruit driven terpene blends.
Together, these terpenes form the distinctive aromatic base that defines indica leaning terpene categories across CBD vapes, botanical blends and CDT formulations.
Granddaddy Purple remains one of the most recognisable indica inspired profiles in modern cannabis culture.
Although the name refers to a specific cannabis strain, the aroma itself can be created using botanical terpenes.
Granddaddy Purple indica terpene is known for its rich berry scent, grape like sweetness and deep earthy undertones. It sits firmly within the category of darker fruit terpene profiles.
The core aromatic notes associated with Granddaddy Purple include:
In a CBD vape liquid, a botanical Granddaddy Purple profile delivers a full bodied flavour that leans heavily into dark fruit and floral tones.
It pairs well with CBD isolate and CBG isolate because its heavier aromatic structure offsets the neutral characteristics of cannabinoids, creating a rounded flavour.
Gorilla Glue, often recognised as GG4 in some markets, is an indica dominant hybrid profile with widespread global awareness.
It is known for earthy gas like tones, pine resin, subtle cocoa notes and a layered woody aroma.
Although the original strain name is protected in some regions, the terpene profile can be recreated using botanical terpenes without referring to strain genetics.
The aromatic composition associated with Gorilla Glue inspired terpene blends typically includes:
Gorilla Glue profiles appeal to UK CBD vapers who enjoy richer, less fruity terpene blends.
They offer an aroma that feels more grounded and complex, contrasting sharply with citrus or tropical sativa leaning liquids.
The third terpene profile in this guide represents one of the most distinctive aroma categories in the UK CBD vape market.
Oreoz is a dessert forward, richly layered, cannabis derived terpene profile. CDTs, or cannabis derived terpenes, are extracted directly from cannabis plants but refined to remove controlled cannabinoids.
Because of this extraction method, CDTs carry a wider range of minor terpenes that botanical blends cannot replicate exactly.
Oreoz is known for creamy dessert tones, biscuit like sweetness, hints of cocoa and subtle gas undertones.
Its structure feels more complex than typical botanical terpene blends due to the natural variability and depth found in plant derived terpenes.
Common terpenes contributing to the Oreoz aroma include:
Because Oreoz uses CDTs, it captures the layered aromatic structure associated with licensed cannabis markets while remaining entirely THC free.
This is a key distinction for UK users seeking authenticity in aroma without intoxicating compounds.
Canavape offers CDT infused cartridges featuring Oreoz and other strain inspired profiles. Users can explore these here: Reserve CDT Cartridges.
Although all three terpene profiles belong to the indica leaning aroma category, each delivers a unique sensory experience.
Granddaddy Purple offers dark fruit sweetness. Gorilla Glue brings earth, gas and wood. Oreoz CDT introduces dessert character with multiple aroma layers.
Together, these profiles represent the full spectrum of indica inspired terpene styles found within UK CBD vape products.
Indica leaning aromatics appeal to users who enjoy deeper flavours and sweet, earthy or dessert like notes.
Many adults transitioning away from disposable nicotine vapes find these profiles more sophisticated and natural.
Indica leaning terpenes also align closely with strain inspired profiles recognised by users familiar with legal cannabis markets overseas.
This makes indica leaning terpene profiles one of the most popular categories within the UK CBD vape market for users seeking naturally derived aroma rather than synthetic flavours.
Both botanical terpenes and cannabis derived terpenes are used in modern CBD vape formulations.
Botanical terpenes are extracted from non cannabis plants such as pine, citrus peel, lavender or herbs. These can replicate well known aroma profiles with consistency and affordability.
Cannabis derived terpenes, however, deliver a more complex aromatic signature because they contain micro amounts of terpenes only found in cannabis flowers.
In products such as Canavape Reserve CDT cartridges, CDTs provide a richer and more realistic strain inspired flavour. This is particularly notable in dessert and earthy profiles like Oreoz.
Indica leaning terpene profiles appear across several Canavape categories. These include botanical terpene infused CBD vape liquids, terpene bottles, and high purity CDT cartridges.
The aroma depth of indica profiles complements CBD isolate and CBG isolate bases particularly well.
