Absinthe
The note of Absinthe presents a complex, multi-faceted aromatic profile that is at once herbaceous, anetholic, and subtly bitter, with an underlying green, almost medicinal freshness. Its initial impression is often sharp and bracing, reminiscent of crushed green leaves and a distinct, pungent licorice-like sweetness derived from its anise and fennel components. As it evolves, a deeper, more earthy and slightly woody character emerges, sometimes with a hint of a milky or hazy texture, akin to the "louche" effect when the spirit is diluted. It possesses a remarkable intensity, capable of cutting through other notes, yet it can also be rendered with a surprising transparency. Projection is typically moderate to strong, creating an intriguing sillage. Its longevity is good, often lingering as a distinctive heart note that can extend into the base, lending a unique, slightly boozy or narcotic quality to the overall composition.
