In this study, it was aimed to determine the volatile compounds of the flowers of wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox) belonging to the Calycanthaceae family which is an exotic species and used as an ornamental plant in the parks of Burdur (Gölhisar) in Turkey. Flower specimens were dried at room temperature, followed by determining their volatile compounds by HS-SPME/GC-MS analysis. As a result of the analysis, 33 volatile compounds belonging to the Chimonanthus praecox species were determined, and the first three main compounds were β-Ocimene at a rate of 61.87%, Sabinene at 7.65% and Caryophyllene at 5.03%. The findings that were obtained were compared to those obtained in other studies.
