The note presents a unique olfactory texture: a smooth, unctuous, and slightly fatty warmth, often with a subtle sweetness that can lean towards honeyed or subtly vanillic. Its projection is typically soft and intimate, acting more as a textural background than a dominant aroma. It evokes the sensation of a solid substance that holds warmth, sometimes with a faint, clean, almost powdery finish, or a whisper of extinguished wick smoke, depending on its specific rendition. It behaves primarily as a heart or base note, lending body and a unique "melted" quality to compositions, enhancing longevity through its inherent richness.
