Basil. But it's an herb, not a spice :)

Allspice. Rosemary is an herb.

Allspice is versatile in both sweet and savory dishes.

Yes, often that is the case, but used in appropriate amounts I find no
substitute as part of a blend of spice flavors in some desserts. I
wouldn't make apple pie without about a 1/4 teaspoon, and more for pumpkin
pie or pumpkin cake or bread, along with nutmeg and ginger, also in
gingerbread.

I think many people use far too much of many spices and herbs. IMHO, they
are meant to enhance, not dominate.

But cinnamon buns would be rather bland without it. One of my favorite
baked goods!

I agree, Ed, but I have had cinnamon buns where the cinnamon was
overpowering, almost bitter.
