Spicy

Nutmeg smells like warmth wrapped in spice—imagine biting into a freshly grated kernel and encountering something simultaneously sweet and peppery, with an almost woody undertone. It's not harsh or aggressive; rather, it has a creamy, slightly earthy quality, reminiscent of cloves mixed with a whisper of black pepper and dried fruit. In a fragrance, it creates a sensation of gentle heat, the kind you'd experience warming your hands around a mulled wine or freshly baked spiced cake.

Saffron smells like warm honey touched by smoke, with an underlying earthiness reminiscent of dried autumn leaves. Imagine the aroma of golden turmeric, but more refined and mysteriously bitter—think of expensive spice markets where threads of crimson-gold sit in wooden bowls. There's a subtle animalic quality, almost leathery, paired with a faint metallic sweetness. It's intoxicating rather than fresh, wrapping around you like cashmere warmed by sunlight.
