OVER RIPE — BURN NO.5
Hot. Sweet. Ripe to the edge.
A scent that hits like banana bread just out of the oven —
banana turning soft and heavy, brown sugar caramelising,
cinnamon, clove and nutmeg warming slowly in the background.
Vanilla settles low, familiar but never innocent.
This is OVER RIPE.

A room warmed to the point of trouble.
Over Ripe hits fast — banana turning syrupy, softening under its own weight.
Brown sugar thicks the air, sticking to everything it touches.
Cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg rise up in a slow bloom of heat,
sharp enough to cut through the sweetness.
It’s sweet, but with a pulse.
Warm, but edging toward wild.
A scent on the verge of giving in.
Heat. Sugar. Collapse.
