Spicy

Bell pepper smells green, crisp, and slightly vegetal—imagine biting into a fresh red pepper, releasing that juicy, watery brightness. It's fresher than you'd expect, with a subtle sweetness lurking beneath grassy, almost cucumber-like notes. There's a slight peppery bite that tingles rather than burns, reminiscent of biting into raw capsicum flesh. It's surprisingly clean and modern, neither fully vegetable nor entirely fruity—somewhere between the snap of a fresh garden and a kitchen just after chopping.

Woody

Vetiver smells like freshly turned earth after rainfall, mixed with dry hay and a whisper of smoke. Imagine walking through a sun-baked field where roots and soil still hold morning dew—that's the grounding, slightly dusty quality you'll encounter. There's an almost savoury, mineral-like character, with hints of cedarwood and green tea. It's simultaneously earthy and arid, never sweet, with a faint green-wood quality that feels both calming and deeply natural. Think of it as the scent of resilience and stability in olfactory form.
