pine sap...?

It occurs to me today after stacking up the cord of firewood we had
delivered, hmmm my hands have got sticky pine sap on them, and hmm I
wonder if pine sap contains pineol? Is that the terp that I recall
reading of in the past?

So I'm wondering what would happen if you broke off some of those sap
nuggets -- you know, those golden amber nuggets that collect in
places along the bark? -- and melted them into your lemon juice when
mixing henna?? Could smell incredibly good, assist with sticking
power (like sugar does) and possibly even darken the henna?

Anyone tried this, or anything like it? Or anyone have any ideas or
caveats to add to the experiment before I decide to try it?
