The note unfolds with a delicate, yet assertive warmth, immediately distinguishing itself from its bolder sibling, nutmeg. It presents a refined, intensely aromatic spice, simultaneously sweet, subtly peppery, and gently woody. There's an ethereal quality to its initial projection, almost a shimmering veil of warmth that settles into a soft, inviting hum. Unlike the more robust, earthy character of nutmeg, this note is brighter, more nuanced, with a citrusy top-note whisper that quickly melds into its spicy heart. Its texture is smooth, almost powdery, rather than gritty or sharp. It behaves predominantly as a heart note, providing a bridge between brighter top accords and deeper, resinous bases. Its longevity is commendable, weaving its aromatic thread through the composition for several hours, projecting a comforting, golden aura without ever becoming overwhelming. It lacks the intense, almost medicinal camphoraceous edge sometimes found in raw nutmeg, offering instead a more universally appealing, sophisticated spiciness.
