What does Big Sur (2017) smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer not far behind and winter chosen least. It sits comfortably on anyone, with no clear lean towards masculine or feminine.

Monterey pine resin and cypress resin build a woody, resinous body, while wild sage adds a spicy, green edge. Marine notes lighten that weight and keep the whole thing fresh. The overall impression is dry, earthy and outdoorsy. Its profile is close to Juniper Ridge Big Sur (2013) and Olo Wyeth.
