Fossilized Amber
The note presents a profoundly ancient and dry warmth, distinct from the sweet, vanillic richness of traditional amber accords. It is intensely mineralic, reminiscent of sun-baked stone and very old, petrified wood, carrying a whisper of ancient dust and a deep, almost geological earthiness. There's a subtle, almost flinty sharpness initially, quickly mellowing into a smooth, gravely texture on the olfactory palate. It lacks effervescence or overt juiciness, instead offering a stoic, grounding presence. Its projection is typically intimate to moderate, a steady hum rather than a burst, but its longevity is extraordinary, lingering for many hours, sometimes days, as a deep, resonant hum. It functions almost exclusively as a profound base note, anchoring compositions with its dry, balsamic, and inherently woody-mineralic character, evolving very slowly to reveal a deeper, more contemplative warmth over time.
