Collection: Cypress

While the cypress is most commonly associated with the Mediterranean, it also grows in the United States, Kenya, India, and China. Perfumers extract its essential oil, which boasts a woody, fresh, and aromatic scent, through hydro distillation of its leaves and twigs. This process yields a slightly yellow oil that imparts a woody, invigorating, and camphoric aroma to fragrances. Generally, cypress is more prevalent in masculine scents but occasionally finds its way into feminine compositions. Furthermore, cypress oil is popular in aromatherapy due to its decongestant, rebalancing, antibacterial, and toning properties.
