The note unfolds as a remarkably crisp and invigorating aroma, a departure from the typical warmth of its namesake. It presents with an immediate, almost crystalline freshness, evoking the sensation of cold, clean air after a rain shower or the metallic tang of distant ozone. It possesses a sharp, yet refined spiciness that is more exhilarating than fiery, reminiscent of freshly crushed peppercorns but imbued with an unexpected coolness. There's an airy, almost aquatically transparent quality, often hinting at a subtle mineral facet or the steely gleam of a winter sky. Its texture is smooth, yet with an underlying effervescence that provides a subtle prickle to the senses. As a predominantly top to heart note, it projects with excellent clarity, offering an initial burst that gradually softens into a sustained, clean, and slightly woody-peppery hum. Longevity is moderate, evolving gracefully rather than dissipating quickly, leaving a clean, almost ethereal trail.
