The note smells dry, ashy, and mineralic, with a subtle smoky facet. It has a textural feel, almost powdery, like fine soot. Its intensity is moderate, not immediately overpowering but present and persistent. It has a slightly rough and grainy texture, as if you could feel the individual particles on your tongue. The scent tends to be a base note, lending depth and grounding to a composition, evolving slowly and subtly over time, with modest projection. It can present a slight metallic edge.
