The note unfolds with a soft, creamy, and inherently refined woody character, often described as having a delicate floral-rosy undertone, almost like a whisper of rose petals crushed against a warm, polished wooden surface. It possesses a smooth, slightly spicy warmth, utterly devoid of any harshness or sharpness. Its texture is almost velvety, evoking the feeling of finely sanded, luxurious timber. It typically presents as a heart or upper-base note, providing a gentle yet persistent presence. Projection is moderate, creating a sophisticated aura rather than a commanding sillage, and its longevity is respectable, often lingering for several hours, evolving into a warmer, more subdued woody skin scent. It lacks the earthy dampness of patchouli or the stark dryness of cedar, offering instead a serene, elegant woodiness that serves as a beautiful harmonizer.
