The note unfolds with a distinctive, warm cereal scent, immediately evoking the comforting aroma of freshly steamed white rice, yet with a richer, more complex depth. It possesses a delicate nuttiness, reminiscent of toasted grains or a subtle almond, alongside a soft, powdery starchiness that feels almost milky and creamy. There's an inherent gentleness to it, a skin-like warmth that is neither sharp nor overwhelming, projecting softly, almost like a second skin. Its texture is smooth, finely milled, and slightly velvety. As a heart and often a lingering base note, it contributes a subtle sweetness, a comforting 'skin-musk' quality, evolving to a gentle, clean earthiness without being overtly rooty or dirty. It offers moderate longevity, settling into a quiet, introspective warmth on the skin.
