Humidity

The note of humidity isn't a singular aroma, but rather an atmospheric texture, a 'feel' that pervades and shapes other scents. It manifests as a palpable density in the air, a dampness that mutes sharpness and softens edges. Olfactorily, it often presents as a subtly moist, slightly earthy, and sometimes mineralic quality. There's a verdant, almost vegetative lushness to it, evocative of soil after a rain, or the dense, oxygen-rich air of a greenhouse. It can lean aquatic, with a dewy, translucent veil, or become heavier, almost a 'wet wood' or 'damp stone' sensation. Its intensity is more about presence than projection, typically a background hum that makes other notes bloom more languidly. Longevity is inherent; once established, it lingers as a persistent, soft diffusion, acting more as a foundational atmospheric layer than a fleeting top note.
