What does Cédrat Intense smell like?

It opens with lemon petitgrain, lemon and citron in a bright citrus cluster. In the heart, pink pepper and black pepper bring spice, softened by ylang-ylang and chamomile. Oakmoss, musk and patchouli give the base its dryness, while opoponax absolute adds a faint warmth underneath.

Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most named settings. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps a quiet presence. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, which fits its unisex profile.
