The note unfolds with a captivating duality, initially presenting a verdant, almost sappy greenness, reminiscent of freshly crushed leaves, damp forest floor, or the crisp snap of a garden stem. This green opening is often accompanied by a subtle, earthy bitterness, a hint of rooty depth that grounds it. As it evolves, the familiar, luxurious warmth of leather emerges, not the harsh, acrid smoke of a biker jacket, but a softer, more supple, tanned hide. It's often dry, slightly smoky, with an undertone of worn suede or fine, well-conditioned leather furniture. The texture is rough yet refined, initially sharp and vibrant, mellowing into a smooth, slightly velvety richness. It possesses moderate to strong projection, particularly in its heart phase, and impressive longevity, anchoring a composition as a sophisticated base note, though its green facets might peek through earlier.
