Dirt

Dirt in perfumery evokes cool, loamy earth after rain, a raw mineral backbone that supports green and resinous notes. It suggests crushed roots, damp clay and the smoky whisper of charred wood, grounding brighter florals with savory depth. Used sparingly, it adds rustic authenticity and aged complexity, recalling forests, gardens and underground warmth. Its tactile, slightly metallic facet balances sweetness and herbaceous accords, creating a primal, intimate trail that lingers like memory in the skin through seasons and moments timelessly.
