Floral

Cattleya orchid smells like expensive silk and creamy vanilla with a whisper of fresh, almost soapy floral brightness. Imagine walking into a luxury hotel lobby where someone's just arranged a dozen exotic blooms—there's an indolic, slightly animalic warmth beneath the sweetness, rather like the scent of a woman's powdered skin or soft peach flesh. It's not sharp or perfumey, but luxuriously soft, powdery, and slightly intoxicating, with a delicate spice that makes you lean in closer.

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.
