It’s so fun how learning about essential oils can take you down these rabbit holes and you learn something totally unintended but interesting nonetheless. After smelling Pink Pepper (Schinus molle), I got the Motorcycle Song by Arlo Guthrie stuck in my head: I don't want a pickle / Just want to ride on my motorcycle... which lead me to this fascinating article on the evolution of the biker persona. I never knew there was an International Journal of Motorcycle Studies...
So here we are with Pink Pepper which smells tangy like a pickle to me. Tangy, slightly floral and sweet, and peppery over time.
