Spicy

Clove smells like a warm spice cabinet on a winter's day—sharp, almost peppery, with a sweet undertone reminiscent of honey and wood smoke. Imagine biting into a clove bud: your mouth tingles with a slightly numbing sensation, and your nose fills with something both comforting and assertive. It's less fruity than cinnamon, less heat-forward than chilli, with an almost medicinal cleanliness beneath the spice. Picture the aroma drifting from mulled wine or a freshly opened jar of pickling spices.

Gourmand

White chocolate smells like cocoa butter warmed in sunlight—creamy, soft, almost edible. Imagine the sweetness of vanilla custard melting on your tongue, crossed with the buttery richness of a freshly opened chocolate bar, yet lighter and more delicate. There's no bitter cocoa bite here; instead, you get pure indulgence: warm milk, honey, and a gentle nuttiness that wraps around you like cashmere. It's the olfactory equivalent of comfort itself—intimate, slightly powdery, and impossibly approachable.
