Aroma de Hormiguero

Aroma de Hormiguero by Santi Burgas is an unusual green and woody fragrance from 2018, created by Rodrigo Flores-Roux and Santi Burgas, with an earthy, outdoor character and a faint ambery warmth.

Galbanum brings a sharp, sappy green freshness to the opening, and artemisia adds a bitter, herbal note. Mastic contributes a resinous, slightly piney aroma, while algae and mushroom give a damp, mineral and earthy tone. Geosmin, the molecule behind the smell of rain on dry soil, adds a wet-earth quality. In the base, fir and oakmoss form a deep, forest-floor woodiness.

Worn by anyone, it is a fragrance for people who like scents that evoke nature in a literal, unpolished way rather than as a pretty bouquet. The green and earthy notes suit spring and autumn, walks in the woods and creative settings. It should appeal to anyone curious about experimental, earthy compositions that capture soil, moss and forest air.
