Starfish

The note of "Starfish" is not a direct olfactory representation but an abstract evocation, a profound and cool whisper from the abyssal depths. It manifests as a serene, mineralic salinity, reminiscent of the ocean's silent floor, rather than the crashing surf. There's an immediate impression of wet, cold stone and damp sand, intertwined with a subtle, almost metallic glint that speaks of ancient, submerged treasures. It carries a distinctive, ethereal cleanliness, devoid of any overtly 'fishy' or aldehydic sharpness. Instead, it's a dry brine, subtly iodine-rich yet smooth, like tasting the purified essence of sea salt on a cool breeze. Its texture is smooth and crystalline, yet with an underlying ruggedness, a hint of microscopic detritus from the deep. Intensity is moderate, a tenacious heart or base note that doesn't shout but rather grounds a composition with its unique marine gravitas. It evolves slowly, becoming more integrated and less distinct over time, lending a sustained sense of expansive coolness and quiet mystery. Projection is intimate to moderate, a personal aura of oceanic stillness, and its longevity is exceptional, clinging to the skin like a memory of the tide.
