What does Cedar Forest smell like?

Oakmoss gives it a cool, damp forest-floor feel, while benzoin and amber soften that with resinous warmth. Copaiba balsam and Chinese toon add a spicy, smoky darkness, so the scent reads dry and woody rather than sweet.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling a room. Voters pick it most for leisure and evenings, with nights out and daily wear close behind. Its profile is close to Lorenzo Villoresi Patchouli (Eau de Toilette) and Régime des Fleurs Falling Trees.
