Aquatic

Algae smells like the ocean's green heart—imagine standing on a rocky shore where seaweed clings to stone, still damp from the tide. There's a briny, slightly salty minerality undercut with something almost metallic and green, reminiscent of wet seagrass, crushed kelp, and the peculiar freshness of a coastal cave. It's not unpleasant, but distinctly aquatic and unfamiliar; rather like breathing in the essence of marine life itself—clean, primal, and vaguely ammoniac without being harsh.

Citrus

Lemon is the zesty, almost sharp brightness you experience when you peel a fresh lemon in morning sunlight. Imagine that precise moment when oils burst from the skin—intensely citrusy yet slightly bitter, with an underlying sweetness that catches you off-guard. It's clean and piercing, like biting into the fruit itself, with a crisp acidity that makes your mouth anticipate tartness. There's a subtle green, almost herbal undertone beneath the fruity top note, reminiscent of the plant's leaves and stems.
