Off the puck Taiga smells of a popular kitchen cleaner but when lathered it opens into an amazingly realistic scent of fir, pine and cedar. Not so much the scent of a forest but the smell of a sawmill. Reminds me of a time when there used to be many small mills in my neck of the woods. Dad would haul me and a trailer to a mill and pick up the cut-offs they had from turning logs into cants.those slabs of wood, round on one side and flat on the other were used to build wind breaks for the livestock. Sort of like a baseball backstop except made with those super oddball boards. The task was to fit those live edged lumber slabs together so as to make a fence with minimal holes for wind to blow through. Often on the Leeward side we would scatter straw for bedding and all in all it made for a much warmer microclimate for the stock. I sure felt a difference. Anyway, those busy saw mills and the resulting load of slabs are brought to mind when I use taiga.
