What does Noble Cedar smell like?
It opens with a bright bergamot freshness. In the heart, jasmine, lily of the valley and orange blossom form a floral core. Musk and cedarwood settle it onto a woody, powdery, creamy base, with a faintly synthetic edge among the accords.
Voters find both longevity and sillage good, with longevity rated 7.6 out of 10. Most voters pick spring and summer, though autumn follows close behind. Daily wear, leisure and office use lead, while evening and night out are chosen less often. Shiseido Zen Essence and Bobbi Brown Almost Bare have a close profile.
