Green

Green tea smells fresh, slightly grassy, and delicately herbaceous—imagine steaming a cup of premium sencha and catching that initial vaporous breath. It's herbaceous without being medicinal, with subtle vegetal sweetness reminiscent of fresh-cut grass after rain, dried hay, and a whisper of subtle bitterness. There's an almost powdery, mineral quality that feels clean and contemplative. It's nothing like the floral sweetness of other florals; instead, it's crisp, refined, and vaguely astringent on the nose.

Citrus

Lemon is the zesty, almost sharp brightness you experience when you peel a fresh lemon in morning sunlight. Imagine that precise moment when oils burst from the skin—intensely citrusy yet slightly bitter, with an underlying sweetness that catches you off-guard. It's clean and piercing, like biting into the fruit itself, with a crisp acidity that makes your mouth anticipate tartness. There's a subtle green, almost herbal undertone beneath the fruity top note, reminiscent of the plant's leaves and stems.
