How to finish a wood while preserving its natural scent?

I'd like to make some wooden crafts with this wood, because the wood itself seems nice and I really enjoy the smell.

However, I would like to finish the wood to ensure its longevity. What technique can I use to preserve the desirable scent?

One of my go to techniques is to coat wood in polyurethane. I suspect this would completely eradicate the smell.
