Highlights
•Four basil cultivars were subjected to chemical profiling using 1H NMR and HPTLC.
•Variety-specific metabolites were identified through LC-MS and GC-MS.
•HPTLC demonstrated superior separation of the basil varieties compared to 1H NMR.
•HPTLC displayed promising potential as a supplementary tool in metabolomics.
