What does Cy smell like?
Its notes aren't split into top, heart and base, so it reads as one whole from start to finish. Cork, oak wood, Virginia cedar and Scots pine build a dry, timbered foundation. Cypress and loam add a green, earthy tone, while frankincense and Somalian myrrh give it a resinous depth. Long pepper, clove and raisin bring a spicy, faintly sweet warmth.
