Scent

Maximum terpenic intensity — the burst when you snap a coniferous branch. Sharp, sap-bright, almost aggressive green. Raw alpha-pinene and beta-pinene at full strength. Bracing rather than atmospheric.

The Full Story

Fresh year-round intensifies the year-round concept with emphasis on freshly cut or broken branches: more sap, more terpene release, more bracing immediacy. The 'fresh' qualifier shifts from forest atmosphere to active foresting.

Higher concentration of alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, and camphene. The accord targets the specific moment of cutting: chainsaw through coniferous wood, the burst of aromatic sap, needles crushed underfoot.

Functions in energizing, winter, and outdoor compositions where the green-terpenic character needs maximum impact.

Did You Know?

The burst of scent when you cut a coniferous branch is a chemical defense response — the tree rapidly releases stored terpenes to repel bark beetles and other borers attracted to fresh wounds. You are smelling the tree's immune system activating.
