A surprising combination that creates unique and memorable compositions.
Citrus
Lemon zest is the sharp, almost peppery brightness you experience when you scrape a microplane across fresh lemon skin—before the juice's sweetness enters the picture. It's intensely aromatic and slightly bitter, with a crisp, green edge that makes your mouth water just thinking about it. Imagine that thrilling moment when citrus oil bursts from the peel, releasing a piercing, almost metallic freshness that feels alive on your senses. It's zesty without being fruity, more like inhaling the pure essence of Mediterranean sunshine captured in a peel.
Gourmand
Vanilla smells like warmth wrapped in sweetness—imagine the comforting aroma of freshly baked vanilla sponge cake, or a warm bowl of vanilla custard on a winter's evening. It's creamy and soft, almost edible, with subtle woody undertones and a hint of spice that recalls cloves or nutmeg. Pure vanilla is surprisingly complex: it's not aggressively sweet, but rather enveloping, like condensed caramel with a touch of earthy depth. It smells like indulgence and safety simultaneously.
