The note of "Armor" presents as a stark, commanding presence, immediately asserting a metallic coolness that is both imposing and deeply textured. It carries the weight of aged iron, a subtle mineralic dustiness that speaks of ancient metallurgy, yet paradoxically, a polished gleam, like steel burnished to a high shine. There is a distinct olfactory hardness, a resilience that feels almost tangible, devoid of any traditional warmth or softness. Its texture is akin to running a gloved hand over cold, smooth metal – firm, unwavering, slightly gritty in its antique facets. Initial projection is deliberate, not overwhelming, but with an undeniable presence that slowly expands. It evolves with subtle nuances of leather, perhaps from the strapping that binds plates, lending a dry, almost arid quality. The longevity is exceptional, anchoring the composition with an unyielding foundation. It typically behaves as a robust heart note, lending structure and an unusual metallic resonance, slowly settling into a stoic base note where its mineral and slightly dry-woody aspects coalesce.
