The key difference lies in the source and aroma complexity. Live resin terpenes are extracted from freshly frozen cannabis plants, preserving the full, strain-specific aromatic profile. They offer a rich, layered scent that closely resembles the original plant. In contrast, distillate terpenes are often reintroduced after THC distillation and may be botanical or synthetic, resulting in a flatter, less authentic aroma experience.
