Floral

Lilac smells like springtime itself—a delicate, slightly powdery floral with an almost indolic sweetness that hovers between honeyed and slightly soapy. Imagine walking through a garden where clusters of pale purple flowers release their scent in warm afternoon sun. It's softer than a rose, less heady than jasmine, with an airy quality that feels both nostalgic and gently intoxicating. There's something slightly green and fresh beneath the sweetness, like crushed stems and morning dew on petals.

Woody

Musk is the scent of warmth itself—imagine the gentle heat radiating from skin after exercise, mingled with soft suede and a whisper of vanilla. It's deeply intimate rather than floral or sharp; think of wrapping yourself in a cashmere blanket warmed by the sun, with a faint animalic undertone that's almost imperceptible. Pure musk has a powdery, almost imperceptible sweetness, like the inside of a lover's wrist or the comfort of well-loved fabric. It doesn't announce itself boldly; instead, it envelops and lingers on your skin like a second layer.
