They were examined by Head Space GC/MS. There were relatively differences among the investigated specimens. The identified compounds of the first one (Guava) exhibited 31 ingredients, which represented (93.16%) of the compounds. The main one was fraistone (12.87%). While, the second one (Mixed Fruits) specimen displayed 36 recognized compounds, which represented (91.98%) of the sample components. The main constituent was isoamyl acetate (19.83%). Finally, the last one (Watermelon) exhibited 27 identified ingredients, which represented (68.60%) of the total compounds and the highest compound was 1,2-propanediol (25.23%) of the constituents.
