Descriptors
pungentsulfide

Extremely powerful, pungent alliaceous odor — the unmistakable sharp, sulfurous smell of crushed raw garlic. Cutting and diffusive with a slightly greasy, savory undertone; even trace amounts dominate a blend. Used almost exclusively in savory flavor work rather than fine fragrance.AI · claude-opus-4-7
