The note of Scorched Siberian Pine immediately conjures a primal, intense aromatic experience. It is profoundly smoky, with a thick, almost tarry character that envelops the senses. Unlike fresh pine, which is bright and sharp, this is dry, dark, and resinous, carrying the ghost of verdant needles transformed by flame. There's a leathery undertone, a distinct campfire warmth, and a subtle, melancholic sweetness that emerges as it settles. Its texture is rugged, almost grainy, evoking charred wood and lingering ash. The intensity is high upon application, projecting a robust, almost brooding sillage that gradually mellows into a persistent, smoldering warmth. This is unequivocally a base note, anchoring compositions with immense longevity, unfolding its complex layers over many hours, sometimes even days, leaving a tenacious, almost indelible trace.
