Qur'anic verse of deep interest to me

[Muslimah]

as salam a`alaman itaba`alhoda Michelle

Mash a Allah I need to make some clarifications here before Insh aAllah I seek Allah's close guidance and try to interpret.

Here u mean by essence a smell or a ray a golden one. and when it was coming down was it coming to your direction, and before it split, did it reach anywhere on earth or just disappeared in the air.?? waiting impatiently for your clarifications:)
