ヒノキ・イン・ヒノキ • スセンツ・オブ・ウッド

The cypress and hinoki come through first, then the clove and moss settle in about an hour later. Wore it on a rainy Tuesday and kept catching it on my scarf all afternoon. Cedarwood in the base keeps it from going sweet, which is exactly what I wanted.

I was worried clove would make this smell like a holiday candle, but it just adds a warm spice that burns off within twenty minutes. What's left is dry cedarwood and moss with that hinoki greenness underneath, and it lasts a solid six hours on my skin.

I was worried the hinoki would get buried under the clove, but it stays front and center the whole time. On my skin the cedarwood and moss dry down into something warm and quiet that lasts a solid six hours.
