What does Monocle Scent Three: Sugi smell like?

It opens with Madagascar pepper and Mediterranean cypress, giving a spicy, green coolness. In the heart, Virginia cedar and Florentine iris build a woody frame, and the base settles into pine and Haitian vetiver, resinous and earthy. A faintly synthetic edge runs through the accords.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close and calm. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most mentioned occasions. Most voters read it as masculine. Miskeo Épices and Perfumer H Ink have a close profile.
