garlicradishpenetrating

Extremely pungent, sulfurous garlic-onion character — sharp, penetrating and eye-watering in isolation. Reads as raw crushed garlic with a green, slightly metallic edge. Used only at trace levels in savory or gourmand flavor accords; rarely encountered in fine fragrance.AI · claude-opus-4-7
