The note bursts forth with an intense, pungent herbaceousness that is immediately recognizable and unapologetic. It possesses a sharp, almost medicinal greenness, underscored by a dry, slightly spicy warmth. Its texture is rugged, almost coarse, rather than smooth or delicate. As a top-to-heart note, its initial projection is formidable, radiating an assertive, aromatic sillage. It evolves to reveal subtle peppery and phenolic nuances, maintaining a tenacious grip on the composition before gracefully receding. It's potent, with remarkable longevity for such a vibrant botanical, often lingering as a ghost of its initial intensity.
