French

I prefer the french language when speaking about perfumes, it is much more expressive than english. My favorite term is used when describing the "chemistry" between two raw materials:

English would say, e.g. white pepper oil and osmanthus are smelling nice together or they are matching. French are using the expression "se marie bien", i.e. that white pepper oil and osmanthus are "well married".
