Woody

Haitian Vetiver smells like you've just walked through a sun-baked garden after rainfall. Imagine the earthy, almost mineral scent of wet soil mixed with dried grass, green roots, and a whisper of smoke. There's a leathery undertone—like old saddle leather left in the sun—coupled with a subtle spiciness that recalls black pepper and dried tobacco leaf. It's grounding and slightly smoky, with an austere, almost medicinal quality that feels both calming and subtly warm.

Citrus

Sicilian mandarin orange is pure, uncomplicated sunshine in scent form. Imagine peeling a warm mandarin on a Mediterranean afternoon—it's sweeter and softer than sharp lemon, with honeyed undertones and a delicate floral whisper. There's an almost creamy roundness to it, lacking the metallic bite of grapefruit. It smells like happiness distilled: bright, gentle, slightly fruity-candy-like, with subtle green leafiness that prevents it from becoming cloying. It's the fragrance equivalent of biting into sun-warmed fruit.
