Laurel Canyon, 1966

Laurel Canyon, 1966 opens with bright herbal snap and citrus bloom—sweet orange and grapefruit catching light like canyon air. The heart softens into jasmine's creamy warmth, deepened by a green, resinous cannabis note that feels alive and slightly smoky, edged with clove's subtle bite and petitgrain's translucent brightness. Beneath settles patchouli's earthy grip, ambergris lending a soft, almost animalic shimmer, while birch tar adds a leathery, tar-dark finish—woody and spent, like old vinyl and dried herbs hanging in a dim room. The whole thing breathes between sweetness and shadow, never quite settling.
