Woody

Palo Santo smells like walking through a sun-drenched forest after rain. Imagine warm, resinous wood—not harsh like fresh-sawn timber, but smooth and honeyed, with a gentle spiciness reminiscent of incense or the lingering smoke from a campfire. There's a subtle sweetness underneath, almost creamy, mixed with whispers of citrus zest and subtle pepper. It's woody yet approachable, grounding without heaviness, like holding a piece of polished wood that's been warmed by sunlight.

Peru Balsam smells like a warm embrace of vanilla-tinged honey drizzled over soft leather and aged wood. There's a honeyed sweetness—almost caramel-like—but grounded by something earthy and slightly spiced, reminiscent of cinnamon and clove. It's simultaneously creamy and resinous, with an animalic undertone that feels almost tobacco-like. Imagine walking into an old library where leather-bound books sit beside jars of amber honey—that's the olfactory territory here.
