Green

Tomato leaf smells like brushing your hand across a tomato plant on a warm summer afternoon—green, slightly bitter, with an almost peppery sharpness. It's herbaceous and slightly dusty, reminiscent of crushed basil mixed with fresh grass clippings and a whisper of savoury earthiness. There's something almost green-petroleum about it, slightly metallic and cooling, like the smell of broken stems releasing volatile oils. It's distinctly *alive* rather than sweet.
