What does Cedar Essence smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. It leans towards leisure and business settings. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the vote count is small, so those ratings are only a rough guide.

It opens on orange, grapefruit, lime and bergamot, with ginger and peppermint adding cool spice. The heart brings marine notes, watermelon, cardamom and lavender for an aquatic, fruity feel. Lebanon cedar, patchouli, coffee bean and amber settle the base into a sweet, woody finish. Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Sport and Tommy Hilfiger Tommy (Cologne) have a close profile.
