Spicy

Spices smell warm, peppery, and slightly sweet—imagine biting into a cinnamon stick or crushing cardamom pods between your teeth. There's a tingling, almost numbing quality that makes your mouth water, combined with earthy undertones. Picture walking into a spice market: that complex blend of clove's sharp bite, nutmeg's creamy warmth, and black pepper's sharp sting. It's comforting yet commanding, never subtle.
