Legality in Europe:
CBD is broadly legal in most European countries, with similar regulations regarding THC. Maximum THC levels vary slightly, but they generally fall between 0.2% and 0.3%.

CBN (Cannabinol)
Legality in France:
CBN is legal in France, as long as it respects the same THC limits as CBD (0.3% or less). Products containing CBN must also be derived from authorised industrial hemp.
Legality in Europe:
CBN is legal in many European countries under regulations similar to those for CBD, as long as the THC content remains below the authorised limit.

CBG (Cannabigerol)
Legality in France:
CBG is legal in France, as long as it is derived from industrial hemp and contains no more than 0.3% THC. CBG-based products follow the same regulations as those for CBD.
