Sativa leaning terpene profiles are known for their bright, citrus forward, tropical and uplifting aromatic qualities.
Although these terms are traditionally associated with cannabis strains, they are increasingly used across the UK CBD vape market to describe the aroma style and natural flavour characteristics created by specific terpene combinations.
This guide explores three of the most recognisable sativa inspired terpene profiles used in CBD and CBG vaping today: Super Lemon Haze, Pineapple Express and the complex cannabis derived terpene blend found in LCG x Pink Rozay.
This article focuses on aroma, flavour and general terpene composition rather than effects.

Sativa leaning terpene profiles usually emphasise bright, energetic aromas that appear citrusy, sweet, fruity or piney.
While the traditional cannabis definition of sativa relates to plant structure and growth patterns, in the modern UK CBD market the term is used mainly to describe the aroma category.
These profiles typically contain higher percentages of terpenes such as limonene, terpinolene, ocimene, beta pinene and alpha pinene, creating a crisp, fragrant and refreshing sensory experience.
Botanical terpene blends can successfully recreate well known sativa aromas without THC.
Cannabis derived terpene extracts, known as CDTs, can replicate the subtler, more complex aromatic layers associated with real cannabis flowers.
Both are used across the Canavape product range depending on the intended flavour style.
These qualities create a clean aromatic experience often preferred by UK users who enjoy citrus or fruit forward vape profiles.
They also appeal to adults transitioning away from sugary nicotine disposables who want natural aroma without synthetic sweeteners.
Super Lemon Haze is one of the most iconic citrus driven terpene profiles.
Although traditionally associated with its namesake strain, the aroma can be replicated using botanical terpenes.
Super Lemon Haze is known for sharp lemon zest, sweet citrus peel and a faint herbal underlayer.
The core aromatic compounds contributing to this profile include:
Botanical Super Lemon Haze terpene blends deliver a clean, refreshing aroma that pairs well with CBD isolate and CBG isolate base liquids.
The natural citrus structure helps mask the neutral flavour of cannabinoids while maintaining clarity and consistency in low wattage vape devices.
Pineapple Express has become one of the most recognisable names in the terpene world.
Although its origins relate to a hybrid cannabis strain, the aroma itself can be created with botanical terpenes.
Pineapple Express is defined by tropical fruit layers, mango like sweetness and herbal undertones.
It is warm, fragrant and smoother than sharper citrus profiles.
Key terpenes linked to the Pineapple Express aroma include:
Pineapple Express profiles are popular with UK CBD vapers because they feel smoother, sweeter and more tropical than classic citrus vape liquids.
This makes them suitable for adults who prefer fruit inspired terpenes without intense sourness.
One of the most distinctive categories of terpenes used in modern CBD vaping is cannabis derived terpenes, also known as CDTs.
These are extracted directly from cannabis plants but are refined to contain no THC or controlled cannabinoids.
CDTs capture the true aromatic complexity of cannabis flowers, producing layered, authentic strain inspired profiles that cannot be replicated exactly with botanical terpenes.
LCG x Pink Rozay is a CDT blend known for delivering a deep, nuanced aroma combining sweet grape, floral rose, berry, champagne like sweetness and subtle gas undertones.
Unlike the pineapple or citrus driven botanical profiles, this CDT blend carries multiple aroma layers that appear gradually as the vape is used.
Typical terpene contributors include:
CDTs shine in this blend because they include the full range of natural minor terpenes that occur in the original plant.
This gives LCG x Pink Rozay a recognisable aroma similar to flowers found in licensed cannabis markets, but without any THC content.

Although all three profiles belong to the sativa leaning aroma category, each one brings a different aromatic character.
Super Lemon Haze and Pineapple Express rely on botanical terpene blends to reproduce familiar aromas.
LCG x Pink Rozay uses cannabis derived terpenes to create a more complex and realistic profile drawn directly from plant material.
All three profiles work well with CBD isolate and CBG isolate vape bases, allowing users to choose between citrus, tropical or floral strain inspired flavour categories.
Sativa leaning aromas are among the most popular in the UK CBD vape market for several reasons.
These profiles feel familiar to adults who previously used fruit flavoured nicotine disposables but now prefer natural terpene based alternatives.
They are also widely recognised by users who have experience with legal cannabis markets overseas.
These factors contribute to the rising demand for CBD vape liquids and cartridges that use natural terpene blends rather than dessert or candy flavour concentrates.
Sativa leaning profiles offer straightforward aroma clarity while remaining natural and plant based.
Canavape incorporates botanical terpenes and cannabis derived terpenes across its CBD and CBG vape ranges to create authentic, natural flavour experiences.
These include 10 ml CBD e liquids, high strength 50 ml CBD vape juices, and 0.5 g CDT cartridges within the Reserve collection.
