Woody

Italian oakmoss smells like damp forest floor after rainfall—earthy, slightly green, with a subtle leather-like undertone. Imagine pressing your face against wet bark and moss-covered stones, then adding a whisper of dried herbs and tobacco leaf. It's grounding rather than floral, with a faint animalic warmth that feels both ancient and slightly smoky. The scent is dry, never sweet, carrying hints of lichen and the mineral quality of cool woodland shade.

Sandalwood smells like warm, creamy silk wrapped around your skin on a cool evening. Imagine the subtle sweetness of vanilla mixed with a gentle spice—almost peppery—alongside a soft, almost powdery dryness. There's a faint milky quality, like almond paste or coconut cream, but not fruity. It's deeply comforting, never sharp or aggressive; rather, it unfolds slowly, like the smell of an old wooden jewellery box lined with fabric, releasing its aroma only when you lean in close. Grounding and intimate.
