Bark

About

Bark smells dry and woody with earthy, slightly bitter and astringent facets, often carrying smoky, resinous or leathery undertones that evoke the scent of a rain‑damp forest trunk, crushed twigs, or autumn leaf litter. In perfumery it functions as a grounding base note and textural modifier, used to add depth, ruggedness and a natural, woodland backbone that pairs well with woods, resins, leather, spices and citrus to impart a tenacious, smoky or rustic character to accords.
