What it smells like
Cedar opens dry and almost austere, then plum and apricot soften the edges quickly, pushing it toward something warmer and more intimate. The heart settles into a spiced wood accord — cardamom and cinnamon keeping it from going too sweet, violet adding just enough powder to feel feminine without being delicate. Projection is moderate and close-wearing; sillage lingers as a warm, slightly resinous trail. The dry-down is musk over darkened cedar, the fruit fully absorbed, the spice quiet but present — Fall and winter wear for anyone who wants a woody oriental that earns its softness rather than simply announcing it.
