Depuis quelques années, un procédé de préservation du bois a le vent en poupe : le THT (Traitement Haute Température). Il permet d'obtenir un bois stable, quasi-imputrescible, couleur caramel et... qui sent le pain d'épice !

Looking further, it does seem that "carmel" might be just a corruption of "caramel", which supports Kate Hudson's answer also.
