The note conjures an immediate sensation of sun-baked earth and dry, aromatic foliage. It's intensely herbaceous, with a distinctive, almost pungent greenness that leans towards the arid rather than lush. There's a mineralic dustiness, a subtle leathery warmth, and often a whisper of smoke or dry wood. Initial impression can be sharp, camphorous, and bracing, reminiscent of a crisp, dry air. As it evolves, it mellows into a tenacious, earthy, and slightly resinous embrace, revealing nuances of parched leaves, warm stones, and a faint, almost peppery spice. Its projection is moderate but distinctive, carrying the dry, clean scent of the wilderness. It behaves predominantly as a robust heart note, often extending its influence deep into the base, providing a unique grounding and a persistent aromatic backdrop.

A natural, earthy, and outdoorsy aroma that evokes the feeling of sprawling, sunbaked Western Mojave landscapes.
