The note presents a balsamic profile, woody and slightly spicy, with a touch of resinous sweetness. It is often perceived as dry, with a powdery undertone that is surprisingly tenacious. The aroma leans into a dark wood, bordering on earthy without being overtly dirty. It has a medium intensity with a moderate projection initially, settling into a soft, comforting warmth close to the skin. It behaves primarily as a base note, lending longevity and depth.
