Note
amber
Not a note. An accord. Mostly labdanum, vanilla, benzoin, sometimes a touch of patchouli. Warm, sweet, slightly resinous. Makes a fragrance feel 'cozy.' At saturation, gourmand. Sparingly, a glow.
⊛ called amber, but not the same thing

⊛ how it wears
- turns deeper alongside woods and amber
⊛ where it tends to sit
mostly in the base, sometimes in the heart, rarely on top.
