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.

Gourmand

Sour milk is precisely what it suggests: the sharp, tangy pungency of yoghurt or slightly curdled cream, with an underlying sweetness that prevents it from becoming truly unpleasant. Imagine the piercing sourness of Greek yoghurt combined with warm, creamy butter—there's a lactonic richness beneath the acidic bite. It's unsettling at first sniff, deliberately challenging, yet oddly compelling. Think of the smell when you open a tub of sour cream on a warm day: that distinctive fermented tang mixed with dairy fat.
