Citrus

Blood orange smells like a more dramatic, sensual cousin of regular orange. Imagine biting into a juicy orange, but with deeper, almost berry-like undertones—there's a subtle tartness mixed with honeyed sweetness. It carries a faint floral whisper, almost like crushed rose petals dusted with citrus zest. The colour suggests darkness and richness; the scent delivers exactly that. It's less cheerful than bright citrus, more mysterious and bittersweet—like candied citrus peel kissed with dark chocolate.

Green

Carrot seed oil smells green, earthy, and surprisingly woody—nothing like eating a carrot. Imagine crushed green stems after rain, with whispers of warm spice and dry hay. There's a mineral, almost savoury quality reminiscent of beetroot leaves and fresh soil. It's herbaceous and slightly peppery, with subtle warmth underneath, like walking through a vegetable garden at dusk. The scent is grounding rather than sweet, with an unexpected sophistication that belies its humble botanical origin.
