Cypress

Cypress is an evergreen coniferous tree native to the Mediterranean region. Its distinctive, aromatic wood has been prized for centuries in perfumery and woodworking. The scent is fresh, woody, and slightly balsamic, with hints of citrus and spice.

Cypress evokes a sense of tranquility and grounding. Its woody, resinous aroma is often associated with meditation, relaxation, and a connection to nature. Fragrances featuring cypress are well-suited for everyday wear, as the scent is versatile and long-lasting.

Cypress is a popular base note in many woody, aromatic, and fougère fragrances. It provides a grounding, earthy foundation and helps to balance out lighter, more volatile top notes. Cypress is often paired with other coniferous notes like pine, juniper, and cedarwood, as well as citrus and spice accords.
