Floral

Neroli smells like a luminous, almost intoxicating burst of fresh orange blossom—imagine pressing your face into a fragrant white flower on a Mediterranean spring morning. It's honeyed and delicate, yet surprisingly bright and slightly bitter, with a creamy, almost soapy undertone. There's a green, slightly peppery edge that prevents it from being purely sweet. It's the scent of a sun-warmed Seville orange grove in full bloom, honeyed yet crisp, floral yet citrusy.

Smoky & Earthy

Smoked tea conjures the intimate warmth of a crackling fireplace mingled with the dry, slightly astringent character of steeped black tea leaves. Imagine standing in a cosy tearoom where someone's just lit a pine-wood fire—there's that woodsmoke, yes, but also an earthy, tannic quality that feels almost leathery on your palate. It's not aggressive smoke; rather, it's the gentle haze of a carefully tended flame, like the wispy vapour rising from a hot cup of Lapsang Souchong, where the tea itself has been dried over smoking pine. There's a whisper of sweet char, mineral earthiness, and a faint peppery bite.
