DEATH

Nothing about this scent rushes, and that is the point. It feels settled and inevitable, like a door closing gently rather than slamming shut. This is not about endings for their own sake, but about what has to be cleared away so something else can finally begin.

Mahogany - Dark and polished, warm with age. Structure and gravity, the sense of time passing whether you acknowledge it or not.

Honey - Soft and golden, lightly sweet without excess. Comfort carried through change, the reassurance that loss does not mean emptiness.

Reaped Wheat - Dry and sun-warmed, earthy and familiar. Cycles completed, harvest taken at the right moment, work finished honestly.

Dried Fruit - Concentrated and quietly rich. What remains after moisture and softness are gone, memory preserved rather than erased.

This feels like the Death card when you understand it, not fear it. Necessary change, clean breaks, and the calm that comes from letting something end so the next chapter has room to exist.
