The freshly picked stigmas are nearly odorless, with typical saffron flavor being developed during the drying process. The aroma description of β-isophorone (3,5,5-trimethyl-3-cyclohexen-1-one) is "saffron, floral and hay". \\ | The freshly picked stigmas are nearly odorless.

| "A specification for high-quality saffron of > 20% crocins, > 6% pic-rocrocin and not less than 0.3% of volatiles, calculated as sum of safranal, isophorone and ketoisophorone, was developed... Saffron extracts and crocetin had a clear binding capacity at the PCP bindingside of the NMDA receptor and at the σ1 receptor, while the crocins and picrocrocin were not effective." \\ |

"Saffron is the dried stigma of Crocus sativus L. and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine mainly for its healing properties... Recent phytochemistry and pharmacological experiments have indicated that crocin and safranal, the major active ingredients of saffron, exert important actions, such as antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic. Unfortunately, the vast majority of those data derive from in vitro studies, whereas a limited number of in vivo experiments support the aforementioned effects." \\ | "Saffron is the dried stigma of Crocus sativus L. and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine mainly for its healing properties...
