Narcissus
The note of Narcissus is a complex, multifaceted floral, often described as intensely green, heady, and slightly indolic, with a distinct hay-like, earthy, and sometimes animalic undertone. It possesses a remarkable duality, capable of presenting as both fresh and verdant, reminiscent of crushed stems and damp earth, while simultaneously exuding a rich, narcotic floralcy that can lean towards honeyed sweetness or a more challenging, almost fecal warmth due to its indole content. Its texture can feel crisp and sharp initially, evolving into a smoother, more velvety richness. It has a strong, assertive projection, often commanding attention, and boasts excellent longevity, lingering as a tenacious heart or even a lingering base note, particularly in its natural absolute form. The initial burst is often a vibrant, almost bitter green, which then unfurls into its characteristic floral heart, revealing facets of hyacinth, jasmine, and even a subtle, musky warmth.
