Birch Tar
The note unfolds as a potent, intensely smoky, and tar-like aroma, immediately evoking the primal essence of a crackling bonfire or a smoldering log. It possesses a distinctively phenolic, almost medicinal sharpness on initial perception, quickly mellowing into a rich, deep, and beautifully rugged leathery facet. Its texture is dry, dark, and resinous, often described as 'dirty' or 'sooty' but in the most sophisticated manner. It exhibits immense intensity and projection, acting as a commanding presence within a composition. As a quintessential base note, its longevity is exceptional, clinging to the skin for hours, gradually softening to a warm, animalic leather with hints of dry wood. It possesses a remarkable ability to anchor lighter, more ethereal notes, grounding them with its formidable depth and character.
