The note of Bay Oil presents a distinctively potent and complex aromatic profile. Initially, it strikes with a sharp, camphorous, and medicinal intensity, quickly evolving into a rich, warm, and deeply spicy character. It carries pronounced facets reminiscent of clove, with hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a peppery herbaceousness. There's an underlying slightly rooty, almost balsamic quality that lends it depth. The texture is invigorating, almost bracing on the initial inhale, settling into a comforting, dry warmth. Its projection is typically strong, capable of asserting itself in a composition without being overwhelming if skillfully handled. Longevity is moderate, often performing as a robust heart note, though its initial brightness can lean it towards a top-to-heart transition. It offers a sustained, earthy spice that anchors other more fleeting elements.
A dry, grown-up, sophisticated, prosperous, and business-like scent, inspired by a historical figure with an austere yet smart reputation. It evokes a feeling of quiet authority and understated elegance.
