How do you describe Complexity??

Can a terrible cigar be called complex? For example if it has a layering of multiple flavors; cat piss, old cardboard, gas fumes and paint... is it complex?

Reading through this whole thread and I agree with the complex is a variety of different flavors coming throughout the duration of the cigar, sometimes multiple flavors at once.
That said, yes, bad cigars can have complexity. Complexity isn't always enjoyable. Just like chics.... complex can be good.... or crazy bad.

I had a Sig II the other evening that was either too young or sick and it was complex, but shitty. Almonds, Tannin, Wet Hay, and Citrus throughout I could pick em all out, but bitter Almond and tannin killed it.
