Woody

Elemi resin smells like a luminous, slightly citrusy woodiness with an almost lemony-piney freshness. Imagine standing in a sun-dappled forest where someone's just peeled a lemon, then inhale warm, slightly resinous wood smoke. There's a gentle spiciness underneath—not sharp, but rounded—with an almost incense-like quality. It's crisp yet creamy, never harsh, with an airy, almost ethereal quality that floats rather than settles.

Vetiver smells like freshly turned earth after rainfall, mixed with dry hay and a whisper of smoke. Imagine walking through a sun-baked field where roots and soil still hold morning dew—that's the grounding, slightly dusty quality you'll encounter. There's an almost savoury, mineral-like character, with hints of cedarwood and green tea. It's simultaneously earthy and arid, never sweet, with a faint green-wood quality that feels both calming and deeply natural. Think of it as the scent of resilience and stability in olfactory form.
