What does Cyprium smell like?

Its longevity is good and its sillage moderate. Voters lean towards night out, leisure and evening, with business and daily wear also getting a share. It reads masculine.

A green, floral freshness comes first: violet and herbs sit alongside the smoky, earthy tone of charcoal. Atlas cedar lays down a woody, resinous base, while copper and lava keep a spicy, hard-edged streak running through the scent.
