Oriental

Peru Balsam smells like a warm embrace of vanilla-tinged honey drizzled over soft leather and aged wood. There's a honeyed sweetness—almost caramel-like—but grounded by something earthy and slightly spiced, reminiscent of cinnamon and clove. It's simultaneously creamy and resinous, with an animalic undertone that feels almost tobacco-like. Imagine walking into an old library where leather-bound books sit beside jars of amber honey—that's the olfactory territory here.

Citrus

Red fruits capture the bright, tart-sweet essence of berries at peak ripeness—think biting into a sun-warmed strawberry or the juicy snap of a raspberry. There's a jammy sweetness underneath, with a slightly tangy, almost winey quality that tingles on the nose. It's fresher than actual jam, more candied than raw fruit, with whispers of red currant's subtle tartness and the creamy-fruity character of ripe red plums. The overall impression is cheerful, summery, and almost edible.
