Odalisk
Also known as: Odalisque
Odalisk Strain Overview
Odalisk is a relatively rare cannabis strain developed by the breeder Bodhi Seeds. The name references the historical term for a female slave or concubine in the Ottoman Empire, though the strain's characteristics are more associated with its exotic genetic heritage than its name's historical connotations. The strain was created by crossing the legendary sativa-dominant hybrid Snow Lotus with an unknown indica-dominant parent, resulting in a balanced hybrid with unique characteristics.
Visually, Odalisk plants typically display dense, resinous buds with a complex color palette that often includes shades of deep green, purple, and sometimes blue hues. The flowers are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain's aroma profile is complex and distinctive, combining earthy, floral, and spicy notes with subtle fruity undertones.
Odalisk is known among cannabis enthusiasts for its well-balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain has gained a reputation for its unique terpene profile and consistent quality, though it remains less commercially widespread than many mainstream hybrids. Its rarity contributes to its status as a sought-after strain among connoisseurs who appreciate its distinctive characteristics and genetic heritage.
