The note offers a powerfully almond-like, marzipan-sweet, and slightly bitter aroma. It has a cherry-like facet, reminiscent of cherry pits or liqueur. At higher concentrations, it can possess a sharp, almost medicinal edge. Its projection is substantial, initially filling a space with a heady sweetness, then settling into a more refined, powdery almond impression. It can exhibit a subtle, plastic-like undertone, especially in synthetic forms. The aroma possesses an oily and slightly waxy texture on the olfactory palate.
