Floral

Rose smells like romance bottled. Imagine walking through a garden after rain—that's the green, slightly damp quality. Then there's the sweetness: honeyed, sometimes with a whisper of spice and subtle fruit notes. Depending on the variety, you might detect hints of honey, jam, or even a peppery warmth. It's never cloying if it's genuine; there's an elegant complexity, a velvety depth that makes you want to inhale again.

Gourmand

White honey smells like liquid gold captured in a bottle—but softer and more delicate than raw honey's sticky sweetness. Imagine warm, creamy vanilla fudge melting on your tongue, with a whisper of floral nectar and something almost milky underneath. It's honeyed without being cloying; instead, it evokes the comfort of warm porridge drizzled with honey, or the tender sweetness of a freshly baked croissant still radiating oven heat. There's a subtle waxy, candied quality—like beeswax candles in a quiet room—that gives it an almost edible tenderness.
