Warm wood notes of aromatic Virginia cedar and sweet red Buddha wood are fused with a compliment of regal Ionioan bergamot and spicy ginger root, then layered with French lavender and given a hint of sparkle from pink pepper and petitgrain.
See if you can pick out the individual notes from the perfume’s bright, cheerful core: citrusy, zesty bergamot (think Earl Grey tea), fresh herbal lavender and the sweet warm spice of the ginger root.
CEDAR (Juniperus Virginiana)
ORIGIN Northern United States
EXTRACTION Steam distillation
Cedar is the aromatic wood of a species of juniper native to eastern North America. The sapwood of this majestic tree is distilled into a fresh, green scented absolute with earthy, woody, masculine, leathery and deep aromas in the background – a scent that will remind you of pencils.
The Cedar oils used here are extracted from off-cuts, sawdust and shavings that would otherwise be considered waste, gathered from sawmills in the United States.
Virginia cedar, ginger from Nigeria, Italian bergamot, Italian lemon petitgrain, pink pepper from Peru, French lavender
