Uncanny valley

This scent is polarising because its both familiar and unfamiliar. Its familiar enough to not be immediately disgusting, but also unfamiliar enough that you can't place exactly what it smells like.

Initially I thought of musty old books, an old library. Then I got a graveyard at night - how Count Dracula would smell like when he rose out of his coffin every night.

I didn't get the smell of a pine forest or newly chopped wood that others mention - there's not enough freshness in the scent for that.

I find this a great layering scent - it can be used to add a more intense Vetiver base note to Terre D'Hermes.
