✦ First Impression:

Opens with a flash of burnt sugar or singed syrup—followed quickly by hay, dry straw, and a restrained herbal edge.
There’s no chlorophyll green, only the memory of dried stems. Resinous warmth rises fast—dusty, slightly ambered, almost like warmth without weight.
A faint bitterness peeks through—not harsh, but emotionally present, like something remembered rather than relived.

✦ Evolving Presence:

The sweetness deepens—more bittersweet than bright.
It smells like burnt honey on dry grass, or sunlight hardened into resin.
There’s a distinct powder-dry herbal shadow, balanced by a soft golden smoke—as if the flower dried itself into memory.
A subtle saline-mineral undertone flickers through—reminiscent of old stone, or algae dried by time, not tide.

✦ Emotional & Symbolic Impression:

This is not the scent of blooming.
It’s the flower after bloom—still standing.
A presence of quiet endurance and a strange clarity.
Like a stone warmed by centuries of sun, or a wind that remembers saltwater, long after the sea receded.
Its sweetness carries a trauma warmth—not sugary, but sacred.
There’s something in it that says:
“I remember, and I remain.”
