A surprising combination that creates unique and memorable compositions.
Citrus
Mandarin orange smells like biting into a sun-warmed orange on a summer afternoon—bright, juicy, and intensely sweet, but with a slightly floral, almost creamy undertone that distinguishes it from sharper citrus fruits like lemon. It's warmer and softer than bergamot, less bitter than grapefruit, with a whisper of honeyed smoothness. Imagine the concentrated essence of that sticky-fingered moment when you peel the fruit and release its aromatic oils—that's mandarin's character: immediately uplifting, naturally sweet, and wrapped in an almost candied warmth.
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.
