sometimes i forget the description of a note, or it's new to me, so i am saving them here for my own reference.

the seeds have a sweet, flowery, heavy fragrance similar to that of musk.

cistus

elemi
Canarium luzonicum, commonly known as elemi, is a tree native to the Philippines, and an oleoresin harvested from it. Elemi resin is a pale yellow substance, of honey-like consistency. Aromatic elemi oil is steam distilled from the resin. It is a fragrant resin with a sharp pine and lemon-like scent.
