Cedre (2007)
by Esteban

Cedar, rock rose (= cistacae/labdanum), cinnamon
Note that the ‘rose’ is the shrub rock rose, not the flowers rosaceae commonly known as roses.
This is an excellent woody scent! It comes in two formulations: EDT (dark brown box) and EDP (light brown box). I have the EDT. It starts with a twist of lemon. Then it develops a lovely cedarwood note that is dry, attractive, and aromatic. This is basically a soliflore, not much else here apart from the cedar. I don’t mind when the note is so well done. Such cinnamon as there is brings further woody bark elements to the scent. I like this.
