Banana Nut Bread

This one belongs in a bakery display case. The fragrance opens with an inviting swirl of orchard-fresh ripe banana, hand-grated orange zest, and fragrant green cardamom pod. This gives way to a heart of warm ground cinnamon, warm ground nutmeg, and crushed clove bud, lending real character to the center. Warm vanilla extract, richly sweet baked bread, and crushed, toasted pecan round out the base, giving the fragrance its lasting depth. Sugared and impossible to resist, it delivers a hot throw that smells good enough to eat.
