Citral is used as a flavor fragrance. it has strong antimicrobial qualities, and pheromonal effects in insects.    Citral is used in the synthesis of vitamin A, ionone, and methylionone, and to mask the smell of smoke.    1-1.7% of people to be allergic to citral.  It's strongly sensitizing; the International Frangrance Association recommends that citral be used with substances that prevent a sensitizing effect. Citral has no genotoxicity, nor carcinogenic effect.

Thujone - Wikipedia
Thujone is found in a number of plants, such as arborvitae (genus Thuja), Nootka Cypress, some junipers, mugwort, oregano, common sage, tansy and wormwood, most notably grand wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), usually as a mix of isomers in a 1:2 ratio. It is also found in various species of mentha (mint). Thujone is a GABAa receptor antagonist. By inhibiting GABA receptor activation, neurons may fire more easily which can cause muscle spasms and convulsions. Thujone is also a 5-HT3 antagoni...
