Lapsang Souchong
The note unfolds with an immediate, assertive, and profoundly smoky character, akin to smoldering pinewood or a distant bonfire. It possesses a phenolic sharpness that is both robust and deeply evocative, leaning into facets of tar, cured leather, and rich, dark pipe tobacco. Beneath this dominant smokiness, one discerns the dry, almost leathery undertones of black tea, steeped to an inky intensity. The texture is dry, somewhat rough, and incredibly assertive, lacking any sweetness or lushness. Its intensity is high, making it a commanding presence in any composition. It behaves primarily as a heart note, providing a powerful backbone and a distinctly 'smoked' signature, but its tenacious phenolic qualities linger well into the base, projecting with a moderate to strong sillage and offering exceptional longevity.
