What does Cedarwood + Cognac smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it neither stays tight to the skin nor fills a room. The number of ratings is small, so this is best read with caution. It suits men and women alike.

The scent moves as one piece: Atlas cedar, rosewood and vetiver build the woody frame, while cognac and benzoin add a gourmand warmth. Tarragon and grapevine bring a green freshness, and cinnamon pushes the spice forward. Damask rose and jasmine keep the floral side in the background.
