The note presents a wonderfully dry, warm, and profoundly nutty aroma, reminiscent of freshly toasted grains or roasted buckwheat. It is not green or astringent like traditional tea leaves, but rather possesses a deep, comforting earthiness that leans slightly savory. Its texture on the olfactory palate feels velvety and dry, almost powdery, with a grounding presence. The initial impression is often a delicate roasted warmth, which then mellows into a persistent, subtle nutty sweetness with a hint of toasted cereal. It exhibits moderate intensity and projection, creating an intimate, enveloping aura rather than a loud statement. As it evolves, it remains remarkably stable, making it an ideal heart note or a nuanced base note that lends remarkable longevity and a unique character to a composition. It lacks the typical "wet" quality of tea notes, presenting instead a parched, wholesome dryness.
