Green

Laurel smells like walking through a Mediterranean herb garden on a sun-warmed afternoon. It's crisp and slightly peppery, with an almost minty freshness, but softer and more refined than mint—think of crushing fresh bay leaves between your fingers and catching that sharp, green vapour. There's an underlying warmth, almost spicy, reminiscent of clove or nutmeg, paired with a clean, herbaceous earthiness that feels simultaneously bright and grounding. It's the scent of sophistication in a leaf.

Spicy

Pimento smells like the inside of a spice jar—warm, slightly sweet, and unmistakably peppery. Imagine biting into an allspice berry (which is what pimento actually is): you get clove-like warmth, a whisper of cinnamon, and black pepper heat, but softer and more rounded than raw black pepper. It's less sharp than it is creamy and almost chocolatey underneath, with a faint fruity sweetness that lingers. It smells like autumn spice cake before it's baked.
