Elemi
The note presents a complex olfactory profile, initially offering a bright, sparkling, and distinctly lemony facet, often described as similar to lemon peel but with a more resinous, slightly peppery undertone. As it evolves, the citrusy brightness recedes somewhat, revealing a warm, balsamic, and incense-like core. It possesses a clean, almost airy quality despite being a resin. The texture it evokes is sticky and slightly oily, reflecting its origin. Its intensity is moderate, providing lift and diffusion without being overwhelming. It typically behaves as a top-to-heart note, bridging the initial burst of citrus or spice with the deeper, warmer base notes, though its resinous aspects can linger into the dry down, lending a subtle fixative quality. Projection is usually moderate, creating a pleasant aura.
