Woody

Amber smells like warmth itself has been bottled. Imagine sun-baked resin, honey left out on a hot day, and the comforting scent of your skin after lying on a warm blanket. There's sweetness here—almost vanilla-like—but deeper, earthier, with hints of powdered spices and the faint smokiness of incense. It's simultaneously creamy and slightly bitter, like caramelised sugar with a woody undertone. It wraps around you like cashmere, never sharp or jarring.

Gourmand

Beeswax absolute smells like honeyed warmth wrapped in softness—imagine the sweet, creamy interior of a honeycomb, with subtle notes of amber and talc-like powder. It's waxy and buttery, slightly resinous, with an almost skin-like warmth that feels intimate rather than intensely sweet. Think of walking into a candle shop where beeswax candles gently perfume the air, or pressing your nose against warm honey that's been left in the sun. It's gourmand without being cloying; rather, it's a comforting, almost narcotic sweetness with an earthy, slightly floral undertone.
