XXX Cyprium

XXX Cyprium by Ermenegildo Zegna is a highly distinctive, conceptual woody fragrance with mineral and powdery accords. It opens with a dry, slightly acidic and sulfurous woody note—often described as resembling rusty metal or scorched clay—giving it a unique, earthy character. Over time, it evolves into a greener, more aromatic, and softly powdery scent with hints of cedar, violet, and subtle warmth, reminiscent of a smoldering log fire or burnt incense. The fragrance leans heavily into an abstract, mineral-woody identity, with a smoky, metallic 'lava' accord that adds depth without being overwhelming.
