This perfume brought back memories of Atelier des Fleurs Cedrus by Chloé. It’s a citrus, woody, and floral blend. At first, it smells more masculine, but after 15-20 minutes, it becomes subtle and totally unisex. Perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to smell like candy, whether you’re a man or woman looking for something androgynous without the label. It’s not overpowering… Suitable for both cool and hot days, and for all ages. I’d give it 8 points, but it doesn’t last long, only about 3-6 hours.

Reminded me of Chloé’s Atelier des Fleurs Cedrus. It’s a blend of citrus, wood, and florals. At first, it smells more masculine, but after 15-20 minutes, it becomes subtle and fully unisex. Ideal for anyone who doesn’t want to smell like a candy bomb, whether you’re a man or a woman looking for something androgynous without the label saying so. It doesn’t overpower… Great for both cool and hot days and suits all ages. I’d give it 8 points, though, because it doesn’t last long, only about 3-6 hours.

Tested on my skin today and it’s not exactly a groundbreaking hit, but it oozes elegance. It wasn’t the fresh Mediterranean vibe I was hoping for; instead, it’s woody and quite rigid (perfect for formal spring and summer events) with a very mature feel. It opens with brief aromatic citrus notes before settling into cedar and vetiver that recalls 80s scents for young men, but far more refined. Good longevity and moderate sillage. This is for a classic style, featuring quality ingredients in an EDT that screams modern classicism.

Tested on my skin today and it’s not a new scent or a historical hit, but it radiates elegance. It wasn’t the fresh Mediterranean vibe I was hoping for; it’s woody and a bit stiff (perfect for formal events in spring and summer) and very mature. It opens with brief aromatic citrus notes before settling into cedar and vetiver that recalls 80s scents for young men, but far more refined. Good longevity and moderate sillage. This is for a classic style with quality ingredients in an EDT that screams modern classicism.
