oreganolike
Oreganolike is a sensory descriptor used in cooking, flavor science, and fragrance to denote a flavor or aroma reminiscent of oregano (Origanum vulgare). The term blends oregano with the suffix -like to indicate similarity rather than identity, and is encountered in sensory notes, product descriptions, and lexicons of herbal flavors.
