What does Canyon Rift (Cologne) smell like?

The pine and fir give a resinous forest feel, while lemon zest adds a bright citrus lift. Arborvitae and Californian incense cedar frame it in wood, and moss leaves an earthy, faintly smoky background. Sweet and spicy touches soften the green character.

Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin and stays light. Most voters pick autumn and spring, and mostly wear it for leisure and evenings. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it reads comfortably either way. Atkinsons The Big Bad Cedar and Tom Ford Italian Cypress have a close profile.
