“Without necessarily identifying it at first smell, we all know the scent of cedar… The smell of a pencil sharpened, like an olfactory return to our childhood. If it transports us to our memories, the scent of cedar also evokes the atmosphere of a sawmill, between dry smells and wood chips. In general, the perfume of this tree is green and resinous. It is one of the most iconic woody notes that also acts as a fixative in a formula. Its scent brings structure and elegance to a fragrance while delivering racy, raw nuances. Virginia and Texas cedar has refined and soft notes. Long confined to functional products, this fragrant wood is once again stirring perfumers who use its elegant and powerful essence in many compositions.”
