Floral

Chinese geranium smells like a honeyed, slightly peppery floral with green undertones—imagine rose petals dusted with black pepper, then softened with a whisper of honey and fresh-cut grass. It's warmer and spicier than typical rose, with a velvety roundness that feels almost creamy on the nose. There's an aldehydic shimmer too, like the scent has been polished to a subtle gleam. It's sophisticated rather than sweet, with a gentle herbaceous bite that prevents it from feeling cloying.

Gourmand

Tonka bean smells like warm vanilla custard swirled with almond cream and a whisper of caramel tobacco. Imagine the sweetness of Madagascar vanilla, but richer and almost spiced—there's a subtle nuttiness underneath, as if someone's stirred in crushed amaretti biscuits and a pinch of cinnamon. It's gourmand without being cloying; the scent wraps around you like cashmere, creamy and comforting rather than sticky-sweet.
