Fresh

Mint smells like a sharp, cool breath of freshness—imagine crushing fresh spearmint leaves between your fingers on a summer afternoon. It's simultaneously sweet and peppery, with a tingling, almost icy sensation that makes your nose feel alert and awake. There's a green, slightly herbal quality beneath the coolness, reminiscent of toothpaste and chewing gum, but far more sophisticated and natural. It's the olfactory equivalent of splashing cold water on your face.

Green

Sage smells like stepping into a Mediterranean herb garden on a warm afternoon. It's dry, slightly peppery, and vaguely medicinal—reminiscent of the leaves you'd brush past while walking through wild scrubland. There's an earthy, almost dusty quality, with subtle woody undertones and a whisper of camphor that catches the back of your nose. It's green without being fresh or citrusy; instead, it feels weathered and wise, like the plant itself has absorbed years of sunlight and been slightly baked by heat.
