Stone

Stone is an earthy, mineral-like fragrance note that evokes the scent of rocks, pebbles, and natural stone formations. It often has a dry, slightly dusty quality and can suggest the smell of ancient caves, quarries, or freshly cut granite. Stone notes are typically found in woody, mossy, or chypre-style fragrances.

Stone notes create a sense of ruggedness, stability, and timelessness. They can evoke feelings of grounding, solidity, and connection to the natural world. Fragrances featuring stone notes are well-suited for casual, outdoor settings and can work year-round, though they may be especially appealing in cooler weather.

Stone notes are commonly used as base notes in fragrances, providing a grounding, earthy foundation. They are often paired with woody, mossy, or aromatic notes to create a sense of depth and complexity. Stone notes are found in a variety of fragrance families, including chypres, fougères, and certain woody scents.
