Ciste Absolute
The note presents a multifaceted olfactory profile. It is intensely amber-like, with a resinous, balsamic depth. Its sweetness is not sugary but more akin to honeyed wood or dried fruits, with prominent leathery, animalic facets, almost reminiscent of castoreum but less overtly fecal. Its texture is thick and slightly sticky. It projects powerfully, leaving a warm, enveloping trail and behaves primarily as a base note, anchoring the fragrance with its long-lasting, tenacious character. Some qualities can be perceived as slightly smoky, suggesting incense or burnt sugar.
