The crushed leaves smell like....pine!!

If in the spring the club shaped flowers (at the end of each leaves)
turn bright red it's a female Lawson's cypress. Do you have cones on it
(these arrive around now aug/sept) and does it droop at the top and
does it smells like parsley and the trunk is red at first then
grey/brown and then flaky? It's a lawson. If it branches horizontaly,
is multi trunked (bark peels vertically in strips) and the cones are
opening really wide like a aniseed seed and finally its under folliage
green is darker than the upper, it's a thuja.

No - the end of the leaves are yellow, and there are no cones at all.
The top is rounded. It branches upwards (?45%)- trunk darkish brown.
