The note of Tolu Balsam unfurls as a rich, warm, and deeply resinous aroma, possessing a captivating sweetness reminiscent of vanilla and benzoin, often with subtle nuances of cinnamon, clove, and a delicate, powdery undertone. Its texture is viscous and enveloping, almost like a thick, golden syrup that slowly spreads its warmth. Initially, it presents a slightly medicinal or phenolic edge, which quickly mellows into a smooth, comforting balsamic embrace. It has excellent tenacity and projection, typically behaving as a steadfast base note, grounding compositions with its profound depth and remarkable longevity. As it evolves, it can reveal hints of soft leather or a faint smokiness, adding layers of complexity without ever losing its inherent sweetness and warmth. It's a scent that feels both ancient and eternally comforting, a true anchor in any olfactory journey.
