Floral

Everlasting flower—primarily Helichrysum italicum—smells like dried straw kissed with honey and a whisper of curry leaf. Imagine walking through a sun-baked Mediterranean meadow in late August: there's a warm, slightly herbaceous sweetness, almost papery and dusty, with subtle woody undertones. It's not floral in the traditional sense; rather, it's earthy and golden, reminiscent of hay warming in afternoon light. The scent is quietly comforting, like pressing your nose into dried lavender bundles mixed with spiced amber.

Aquatic

Marine notes smell like the ocean itself—but not literally seawater (which would be unpleasant). Instead, imagine standing on a windswept beach after a storm: that fresh, slightly metallic-mineral quality in the air, mixed with sea spray and the green saltiness of seaweed. There's an ozonic crispness, almost electric, combined with subtle hints of ambroxan (a synthetic that mimics ambergris) and briny, slightly iodine-like undertones. It's clean, airy, and subtly salty—like the smell of coastal air itself distilled into a bottle.
