Woody

Ambrette smells like warm, slightly sweet timber with a subtle musks-like softness—imagine the dry wood of a cedar chest mingled with the faintest whisper of animal warmth and skin. It's neither aggressively woody nor perfume-counter musky; instead, it's gently creamy and intimate, with a hint of spice lurking beneath. Think of inhaling the scent of aged sandalwood that's been sitting next to a bowl of vanilla beans. It's comforting, almost skin-like in its adhesiveness.

Aquatic

Coconut water smells nothing like the dense, creamy coconut milk you might expect. Instead, imagine the delicate, slightly sweet vapour rising from a freshly cracked young green coconut—ethereal and watery, with whispers of pale fruit and a faint mineral quality, rather like lightly salted tropical air. It's clean, almost translucent, with a subtle greenish freshness underneath, reminiscent of tender coconut flesh mixed with the faintest hint of seawater. Refreshing without being sharp.
