Green

Clary sage smells like walking through a sun-warmed herb garden after rain. Imagine crushed sage leaves—herbal and slightly peppery—but softer, more refined than common culinary sage. There's an unmistakable earthiness underneath, with whispers of something almost floral and slightly medicinal, like a heated poultice of lavender mixed with dried hay. It's simultaneously fresh and warm, green yet somehow powdery. The scent has an almost creamy texture to it, less sharp than you'd expect from an herb.

Floral

Geranium smells like a sophisticated green floral with a subtle spicy-peppery edge—imagine crushing fresh rose petals mixed with green tomato leaf and a whisper of black pepper. It's greener and more herbaceous than rose, with an almost minty freshness that catches the back of your nose. There's also a faint woody, slightly earthy undertone, like being in a garden after rain. It's bright yet grounded, never cloying.
