who doesn’t love terp research?!     From wiki:    Caryophyllene (/ˌkærioʊˈfɪliːn/), more formally (−)-β-caryophyllene (BCP), is a natural bicyclic sesquiterpene that is a constituent of many essential oils, especially clove oil, the oil from the stems and flowers of Syzygium aromaticum (cloves),[3] the essential oil of Cannabis sativa, copaiba, rosemary,[4] and hops.[5] It is usually found as a mixture with isocaryophyllene (the cis double bond isomer) and α-humulene (obsolete name: α-caryophyllene), a ring-opened isomer. Caryophyllene is notable for having a cyclobutane ring, as well as a trans-double bond in a 9-membered ring, both rarities in nature.   More research:      Caryophyllene was one of the firstcannabis-derived compounds – other than THC, CBD, and CBN – which was found to bind directly to endocannabinoid receptors in the body. Alpha caryophyllene (also known as humulene) can be found in a large amount of plants and fruits including hops, sage and lupulus. Beta-caryophyllene can be found in black pepper, and lastly, caryophyllene oxide can be located in eucalyptus plants. Did you know that caryophyllene oxide is the component that dogs are trained to detect to sourceillegal cannabis? Is there a distinct smell? Caryophyllene has its own scent just like every other terpene and often smells spicy or peppery. What conditions can caryophyllene-abundant strains support with?  All terpenes have different effects when working in conjunction with the other cannabinoids present in medical cannabis. In particular, this compound binds to CB2 receptors and can support the immune system, relieve pain, reduce inflammation and can help to soothe and relax the patient. Therefore, this terpene can be found in strains of cannabis that are prescribed to those living with anxiety and chronic pain. In addition, caryophyllene has been found to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and may be used to relieve symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. How should I vape cannabis with high levels of caryophyllene? To vape beta-caryophyllene, you should heat it at around320°F / 165°C. For caryophyllene oxide, you can maximise its benefits by heating it at 495°F / 257°C.  

Indeed, along with Thiols and other sulphur compounds.
