Cedar wood’s bright, tangy, and dry, almost juniper-like feel is a mainstay of men’s cologne.  It’s dignified character evokes both the great outdoors and cultured city sophistication. Cedar can also be a major or minor note in perfume, as it blends exceptionally well, so it’s always appropriate to wear year-round, day or night, for a polished, but laid-back effect.  Cedar pairs best with sandalwood, vetiver, leather, and light floral and citrus notes.
