What it smells like

Papyrus smells dry, woody and slightly dusty, like ancient plant fibers and sun-warmed paper with a soft, clean, slightly incensey warmth. It feels quiet, airy and meditative. It is usually an accord used in the base to add a dry, earthy softness. It pairs well with incense, sandalwood, musk, vetiver and citrus.

Papyrus is listed in 68 perfumes in this directory. It is used across the base, heart and top positions rather than in one fixed place. It is most often paired with sandalwood, patchouli, bergamot and cedarwood.
