Fragrance components of lilac (Syringa vulgaris) blossom have been characterized in this paper. The accurate characterization of fragrances collected from lilac blossom was carried out by solid-phase trapping-solvent extraction and gas chromatography-ion trap mass spectrometry. According to lilac species, the chemical compositions were significantly different. Benzaldehyde, phenylacetaldehyde, and -farnesene were found as the predominant component of white lilac blossom whereas benzaldehyde, -pinene, and ocimene were those of pale purple lilac. The enantiomeric analysis of -pinene in lilac blossom was found in the form of ( ).
