Spicy

Coriander seed Orpur® smells warm and slightly sweet, like biting into a freshly ground spice blend—think gingerbread or curry powder, but more refined. There's a gentle citrusy brightness lurking beneath the spice, reminiscent of orange zest mixed with dried herbs. It's comforting rather than harsh, with an almost woody undertone that reminds you of a well-stocked kitchen cupboard on a cold afternoon. Not peppery or hot, but gently warming and inviting.

Woody

Haitian vetiver Orpur® smells like you've just walked into a sun-warmed earth cellar after rain. There's a dry, almost smoky grassiness—imagine dried wheat stalks and root vegetables—layered with subtle earthiness and a whisper of smoke. Unlike sweeter vetivers, this one has a mineral, almost peppery quality with faint hints of leather and damp soil. It's grounding and slightly austere, the olfactory equivalent of touching cool stone.
