What do reviewers say about Drakon and Italian Cypress?
Not another safe niche frag. This one's got bark and bite, the cypress opens sharp, the leather underneath is real (not simulated), and it holds its ground for a full workday.Drakon
The cypress is the whole point. It doesn't blend in, doesn't soften, doesn't apologize. Everything else, citrus, herbs, warm moss, exists to support that single austere note.Italian Cypress
