Gurjun Balsam
The note presents a woody-aromatic profile with a subtle resinous undertone. It evokes a dry, almost papery woodiness, unlike the sappy green notes often associated with forests. There's a distinct spiciness, reminiscent of pepper or cardamom, adding a warm, tingling sensation. The projection is moderate, offering a grounded and comforting presence rather than a loud statement. It tends to function as a heart or base note, providing a lasting, slightly dusty warmth.
