Gourmand

Sweet notes smell like indulgence wrapped in warmth. Imagine biting into caramelised toffee, the butter-rich creaminess of vanilla custard, or warm honey drizzled over toast. There's a mouth-watering quality—like confectionery shops, bakeries, or the sticky sweetness clinging to your fingers after eating butterscotch. Unlike fruity sweetness, gourmand sweetness is dense and enveloping, evoking desserts and comfort foods rather than fresh produce. It's the olfactory equivalent of a warm hug from grandmother's kitchen.

Gourmand

Vanilla smells like warmth wrapped in sweetness—imagine the comforting aroma of freshly baked vanilla sponge cake, or a warm bowl of vanilla custard on a winter's evening. It's creamy and soft, almost edible, with subtle woody undertones and a hint of spice that recalls cloves or nutmeg. Pure vanilla is surprisingly complex: it's not aggressively sweet, but rather enveloping, like condensed caramel with a touch of earthy depth. It smells like indulgence and safety simultaneously.
