The note presents as a deeply grounding, dry woody aroma, reminiscent of aged timber and sun-baked earth. It possesses a unique, almost papery texture, with a subtle, rooty bitterness that is quickly softened by an unexpected, delicate sweetness, a whisper of dried fruit or a very faint, abstract floral echo, perhaps a ghost of pink petals. Its intensity is moderate, offering a quiet strength rather than an overt declaration. It projects with a gentle, enveloping warmth, settling into a long-lasting, comforting presence. Primarily a base note, it lends structure and depth, evolving slowly to reveal its nuanced, almost balsamic undertones. It lacks the sharp edges of cedar or the creamy richness of sandalwood, instead offering a unique, almost ancient, dry warmth.
