Woody

Akigalawood smells like sun-warmed driftwood meets creamy sandalwood, with whispers of dry hay and aged paper. Imagine walking through a cedar-lined cabin on a hot afternoon—there's that resinous, almost dusty warmth, but softer and more ethereal than typical woody notes. It has a subtle sweetness underneath, like vanilla-tinged wood smoke that's been gently diffused through time. The overall effect is simultaneously woody and powdery, never harsh, with an understated elegance reminiscent of worn leather that's been left in the sun.

Floral

Chinese geranium smells like a honeyed, slightly peppery floral with green undertones—imagine rose petals dusted with black pepper, then softened with a whisper of honey and fresh-cut grass. It's warmer and spicier than typical rose, with a velvety roundness that feels almost creamy on the nose. There's an aldehydic shimmer too, like the scent has been polished to a subtle gleam. It's sophisticated rather than sweet, with a gentle herbaceous bite that prevents it from feeling cloying.
