Cedarwood
Cedarwood essential oil has a woodsy scent. It's extracted from many varieties of cedar and juniper trees. Cedarwood oil is relatively safe and has many potential uses
Patchouli
Patchouli has a strong, sweet scent that falls into the musky-earthy category. Because of its strong fragrance, it's often used as a base scent in candles and perfumes
Cinnamon
Cinnamon has a sweet, woody fragrance on both grounds and sticks. The sweet-spicy flavor of Cinnamon enhances the taste of vegetables and fruits.
Ginger
Scent of ginger: It smells peppery sharp, pungent, aromatic, and warm, sometimes with a camphoraceous or lemon note
Vanilla
Vanilla is associated not only with warmth, softness, and caring, but also has connotations of purity and simplicity.
Lavender
Lavender scent is sweet fresh lavender, floral, berry note with fine woody undertone
Clove
Sweet, warm, woody: cloves taste and smell like Christmas. They're a staple of many culinary spice mixes, including garam masala, five spice and ras-el-hanout, while their potent oil has antiseptic and pain-relieving properties.
Jasmine
Jasmine has been described variously as heavenly smelling, exotic, exquisit, tenacious, sensuously rich, supremely sensual, intense, slightly heady, narcotic, intoxicating, sometimes clawing, warm with oily leafy-green, fruity undertones, illusive, sweet and warm.
Amber
Amber oil is warm, musky, rich and honey-like, and also somewhat earthy. It can be synthetically created or derived from natural resins. When derived from natural resins it is most often created out of labdanum. Benzoin is usually part of the recipe.
Sandalwood
Sandalwood oil has a distinctive soft, warm, smooth, creamy, and milky precious-wood scent. It imparts a long-lasting, woody base to perfumes from the oriental, woody, fougère, and chypre families, as well as a fixative to floral and citrus fragrances.
Oakmoss
Oakmoss smells earthy, and woody, sensual with hints of musk and amber and is really not like anything else in the perfumer's 'palette' because it also works fantastically as a 'fixative' to give scent a longer life on the skin.
Geranium
Geranium smells citrus and fruity accents with a hint of spice and a rose smell of course! Generally, for its scent, geranium is often mistaken for 'the other' rose but with a less powdery and more lemony, herbaceous aroma, with a soft but potent warm green scent
Frankincense
The smell of frankincense varies both by species as well as soil and even weather conditions. However, in general, it could be described as aromatic, musty pine with notes of citrus and spice. It's an austere, earthy scent somewhat similar to rosemary.
Vetiver
Vetiver smells dry, earthy, woody, leathery and smoky. Think of uncut grass on a warm day and you'll have a rough idea of what vetiver smells like
Almond Coconut
A true Coconut! Super strong! A natural coconut shell type with a nutty coconutty top note, a massoia, and milky middle note with sweet vanilla and tonka bean base note.
Cardamom
Cardamom has a slightly sweet and spicy scent with a subtle woody touch to it. ... The woody background scent fades away for the most part. This leaves you with a spicy, sweet scent that has a seductive and pleasant quality to it.
Argan Oil
It has a smell a bit like Olive Oil but with a more organic, sour scent or light citrus fruit fragrance. Some people even describe the natural Argan Oil smell as pungent or like “manure”!
Rosemary
The scent of rosemary oil eases throat congestion, and also treats allergies, sore throat, cold and flu. Pungent, lavender-like, aromatic: nothing smells quite like rosemary
Iris
A natural iris (iris root) note is earthy, woody, powdery, reminiscent of boiled carrot. A fantasy iris note is a powdery floral, reminiscent of the violet flower.
White Musk
White Musk is a clean, smooth and sweet musk scent that lacks the animal elements of other musks. These musks form the foundation of many prestige and designer scents, but White Musk has become a category of its own, with different houses developing their own tangent from the basic approach.
Blackcurrant
The distilled absolute of the blackcurrant buds and leaves is known as bourgeons de cassis (say it 'boor-shon da cassee'): a light, fruity, woody note with a slightly animalic edge.
Cypress
Cypress has a fresh, clean aroma that is herbaceous, spicy, with a slightly woody evergreen scent. This oil is a favorite because of its many therapeutic properties.
Coral Reef
Unbounded freshness, a citrus marine type with top notes of lemon, and orange, middle notes of geranium, lily of and exotic spices with a woody, amber moss base.
Honeydew
The fresh crisp Honeydew Melon was cultivated in Southern France and Algeria centuries ago and inspired the creation of this melon oil fragrance. It has a decadent, light and refreshing aroma with notes of sweet peach, melon with nuances of juicy berries.
Grapefruit
The smell of grapefruit has another very important characteristic that distinguishes grapefruit from a majority of other citruses. It is a particularly bitter herbaceous woody aspect, reminiscent of Vetiver
Lemongrass
Extracted from the leaves and stalks of the lemongrass plant, lemongrass oil has a powerful, citrus scent. It's often found in soaps and other personal care products.
Sweet Pea
Sweet Pea is a sweet floral fragrance with faint peppery edge to it. It smells very special and feminine to me. Sweet, dainty floral scent, they captured Sweet peas very well.
Green Apple
This is a beautiful, crisp and juicy scent filled with fruity notes of fresh green apple atop grape, pear and a very light musky base.
Orange
Sweet Orange Essential Oil has a sweet, citrus smell much like the orange peels it is derived from, only more intense and concentrated.
Lemon
Distinctively clean, sharp, and citrus, the fragrance has a smoother, creamier aroma in the higher qualities.
