What does Eau de Cèdre smell like?
The top notes of lemon and bergamot give a bright citrus lift, with violet leaf adding a green edge. In the heart, cumin, cardamom and sage bring a spicy turn. The base of black tea, cedar and suede settles it into a woody, faintly leathery finish, while a sweet accord softens the sharper edges.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine and favour spring and fall, mainly for daily wear, work and leisure. It has been discontinued. Its profile is close to Yohji Yamamoto Homme and Baldessarini Secret Mission.
