Spicy

Spicy notes conjure the warmth of a winter kitchen—imagine biting into a cinnamon stick, the peppery tingle of black pepper on your tongue, or the sweet-heat of clove. They're simultaneously warm and sharp, with a gentle burn that lingers pleasantly rather than aggressively. Think of the dusty, slightly sweet aroma of nutmeg or the resinous heat of ginger root. These notes feel comforting yet invigorating, like wrapping yourself in a cashmere blanket whilst holding something alive and tingling in your hands.

Smoky & Earthy

Tobacco smells like a warm, slightly sweet haze—imagine walking past a cigar lounge on a cool evening. It's earthy and rich, with subtle leather undertones and a hint of dried hay. There's an almost vanilla-like sweetness beneath the initial smoky harshness, reminiscent of opening a tin of premium pipe tobacco or the interior of a well-aged leather armchair. It's neither acrid nor unpleasant; rather, it's a sophisticated, slightly intoxicating warmth that lingers on your skin like memory.
