Cryptomeria japonica (Japanese cedar / sugi) leaf/wood oil has a fresh coniferous character — bright pine-needle greenness with a soft camphoraceous lift, opening onto a dry, resinous cedar-wood heart. Less pencil-shaving than Virginia cedarwood; greener and more terpenic, with a cool forest-floor nuance.AI · claude-opus-4-7
