Alpha-terpinyl acetate, 1,8-cineole, linalyl acetate, limonene, and linalool. There are many other constituents. These are the main volatiles and aromatic components.

In the oil were found α-terpineol 45%, myrcene 27%, limonene 8%, menthone 6%, β-phellandrene 3%, 1,8-cineol 2%, sabinene 2% and heptane 2%.
