Cypress smells like a fresh, clean, and woody scent that makes you feel like you're outside in a cool forest. It’s a green and earthy aroma, like a fresh-cut Christmas tree but less sweet and more refined. Cypress smells like walking through a pine forest after it rains, or that fresh, invigorating smell when you open a new gym bag if it had a woodsy air freshener inside. It gives off a calming but focused vibe, which is why it's used in lots of fresh, outdoorsy fragrances.
