Cinnamon Leaf
The note unfolds with an immediate, assertive warmth, less overtly sweet or powdery than its bark counterpart, presenting a more rugged, almost raw spice. It possesses a distinct phenolic quality, reminiscent of clove, with a sharper, peppery edge that tingles the nostrils. There's an underlying green, slightly medicinal, even woody facet, preventing it from veering into purely gourmand territory. Its intensity is pronounced, offering strong projection initially, then mellowing into a comforting, dry warmth. As a heart-to-base note, it anchors compositions with its tenacious, spicy embrace, slowly diffusing its comforting, slightly piquant aura over many hours. It is not effervescent, but rather dense and enveloping, creating a rich, textural 'feel' in the air.
