The note unfolds with a strikingly crisp, bracing freshness, instantly evoking the cool, clean air of a high-altitude forest. It possesses a sharp, green, and distinctly resinous character, with an almost metallic undercurrent that lends it a unique, crystalline edge. Imagine the scent of crushing a handful of fresh evergreen needles between your fingers after a frost. There's a subtle, almost dusty-sweet mentholated lift, preventing it from becoming overly harsh, evolving into a woody, slightly balsamic warmth as it settles. Its texture is prickly yet smooth, invigoratingly cool on the olfactory palate. Projection is notably strong and immediate, a clear, expansive aroma that cuts through other notes. Longevity is commendable, behaving typically as a robust top-to-heart note, holding its distinct profile for several hours before merging gracefully into a softer, resinous woody base.
