Published thresholds

2 measured values from the literature. Grouped by what was actually measured — a threshold smelled in clean water, tasted in the mouth, or measured in a real food are three different quantities and are not pooled.

In a food matrix

1.0 ppb – 3.2 ppb

Measured in a real food, where the matrix shifts detection — not a clean-water value.

Threshold Matrix Source Paper
1.0 ppb water (food: cocoa) Literature corpus 36900586
3.2 ppb water (food: tea) Literature corpus 33347483

Only values we can attribute are listed. Where a compendium's licence does not permit public attribution its figures are omitted here, so every number on this page traces to a citable source.

Where you'd actually smell it

Odor Activity Value = measured concentration ÷ odor threshold (2.1100000000000003 ppb, the engine's canonical value — see the 2 published values). OAV ≥ 1 = perceptible.

Measured impact first, then profile share

Every ingredient known to contain linalool oxide ii. Ingredients with a measured concentration come first, ranked by odour activity; the rest follow by how large a share of that ingredient's profile this molecule is. The figure beside each is how many different compounds that ingredient has in total — not the concentration of linalool oxide ii in it. Full concentrations are in the OAV table above.
