A surprising combination that creates unique and memorable compositions.
Floral
Hibiscus is a tart, slightly fruity floral with a papery, almost tea-like quality—imagine the dried petals of the flower themselves, with subtle notes of cranberry and sour cherry. It's not sweetly perfumed like a rose; instead, it carries a crisp, slightly astringent character reminiscent of hibiscus tea, with delicate herbal undertones and a whisper of tropical fruit. The scent sits somewhere between fresh and slightly dusty, with a subtle woody dryness that prevents it from being cloying.
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.
