Concrete
The note presents as a remarkably dry, cool, and intensely mineralic aroma, evoking the raw, unyielding texture of freshly poured or aged concrete. It possesses a subtle, almost chalky dustiness, often accompanied by a faint, clean metallic edge, reminiscent of rebar or damp stone. Its intensity is typically low, a quiet hum rather than a shout, making it an excellent textural element rather than a dominant scent. It projects intimately, clinging close to the skin, and exhibits exceptional longevity, settling deep into the base where it provides a grounding, almost stoic foundation. It behaves primarily as a base note, offering a unique, almost architectural stability to a composition. There can be nuances of dampness, like a city street after a light rain, or a stark, arid quality, like sun-baked pavement.
