Nosie

Kerosene

The note presents as a fiercely sharp, almost metallic-acrid opening, immediately gripping the senses with an intense, pungent, and distinctly industrial character. It is an olfactory jolt, a raw, unrefined petroleum essence that can feel both abrasive and strangely compelling. Its texture is almost oily-vaporous, clinging with a persistent, penetrating quality rather than a soft embrace. There's an undeniable undercurrent of exhaust fumes, perhaps a hint of singed rubber or hot metal, lending it a smoky, tarry depth. While primarily a top-to-heart note, its strong projection ensures it announces itself boldly and leaves a lasting, provocative trail. It possesses little evolution in terms of softening or sweetening; rather, its intensity slowly wanes, leaving a ghostly echo of machinery and stark, urban landscapes. Longevity is surprisingly robust for such a volatile impression, as its characteristic scent profile adheres with tenacity.
