Armani Eau de Cèdre

I was quite late to join the party of this fragrance. As this Armani eau de Cedre has been under radar. When I was (still a fool) watching youtuber / influencer videos, I think I never heard they discussed it. Maybe somehow I missed, dunno. But anyway, like end of last year, I was so bored in the weekend, I went to local fragrance shop. And there it is, eau de Cedre was sitting in a corner of the shelf of Armani, like a "benchwarmer" for their more famous line such as Stronger WIth You, or Acqua di Gio, or even Code, which I already have at least one for each line. Somehow my hand reached that old-school looking bottle, thinking, hmmm, I never heard of it. Btw, at that time actually I was about to test Beau de Jour of Tom Ford, to get final decision if I pull the trigger or not. And honestly, even after spraying BdJ on my hand, I was still 50-50. I like it, but then not that "like" to execute with the price. So I was actually about to leave the shop when I saw this eau de Cedre. Then I sprayed it on my other hand...... I was speechless..... Totally speechless. Like wanna say, "where have you been before?????". It was love at first sniff, literally. It ticks everything what I was looking for for my daily wear. It is polite yet elegant. It is shy yet seducing. It is present yet clean. It has tea note whispering in the background of calming woody scent. I mean, really, "Where have you been before????" was keep playing in my head. So, right after I left the store, I browsed for online (hell no I pay full retail price), and saw an offer on one of my usual discounter shops. Without second thought, I pulled the trigger. And then I saw that there is an issue it is discontinued, I then "What the **** ????". I finally find my love by the ship has sailed???? Long story short, 5 minutes later I ordered the backup bottle. I didnt care. Performance wise, it is decent. It is not screaming, not whispering, but more like whistling (not in spooky horror movie type) for first 3-4 hours before become skin scent until around 6-8 hours. It projects controlled between 0.5 - 1 m, exactly what I look for. And we dont need to be afraid to overspray it, although I personally never overspray. In my opinion, it won't be head turner, that someone will chase you asking what you are wearing (which is I think so cliche in fragrance discussion). It will just create calming, polite aura, makes you approachable. Long story short, now its small decant is always in my office bag. It is my current main "after lunch respray fragrance", overthrowing Terre d'hermes eau givree, which I still have also small decant of eau givree in my bag, but reach it less than eau de Cedre. And at least once a week I wear it also since the morning. It now competes with Bvlgari PH EDP as my number one fragrance (one gives bright aura, one gives calming aura). I love that both my top 2 fragrances are under radar ones. That's why until before I am writing this, I haven't written, or commented anything about these fragrances. I dont want it to be too well known (like Sauvage or Bleu de Chanel or Acqua di Gio). I actually wanna keep them under radar. But fragrance is subjective and personal anyway. Note: regarding the discontinued issue, I think it is more about availability problem in some countries. Here in Germany, it is still available without problem (while I am still waitiung for big discount time to secure 2nd back up bottles. Too many? I DONT CARE lol)

I love the scent. I can't smell much Cedar or woods. This is a very simple fragrance - very niche-like - with me only getting 2 big notes: tea as the main note, and leather if I sniff it super close. Although I like it, I'm still not 100% sold on the leather down there, but I can't really smell it unless I sniff the exact spot I sprayed. It does give it a nice masculine edge, but the projection is mainly tea. There is violet leaf as well but it's not as prominent as the first two. Girls love it too. I've worn this for a few weeks now, and the reactions from the opposite gender have been overwhelmingly positive. Where I'm from (central Europe), all the girls are absolutely obsessed with drinking boba tea. There are at least like 60 boba shops in my city alone and new ones keep popping up every few months. Eau de Cédre smells like drinking iced tea in the summer, which makes it very reminiscent of it. Thus the power of association. It's incredibly inoffensive. Ethereal too. Only slightly masculine - in fact, I've even had one girl tell me it smells feminine. I don't agree with that, but I agree with the reviewers below that say women could easily pull this off. I think that some degree of unisexness is necessary if you want a fragrance that is mass-appealing. Yes. This is super mass-appealing, yet unique at the same time. As far as I know, there are only 2 other easily available fragrances for men with tea as a main note. Bvlgari pour homme and Azzaro Chrome United. I found Bvlgari a bit too old fashioned. Eau de Cedre is more modern. I haven't tried Chrome United, but based on the reviews the longevity is pretty bad. Which bring me to my next point - performance. The longevity is good. That's all I have to say. It's not beast mode by any means, but it's decent. The versatility is also something to commend. I'm planning to try wearing this throughout the year, although sping/summer is definitely more suited for it. Edit: I wasn't really able to get over the leather here, and rarely wear it nowadays - I just feel like it doesn't fit the fragrance.

Starting with LONGEVITY: I don’t have this (YET!), I have just sprayed it on my arm a few times when testing fragrances at a store, and I believe me if you want, but this lasts on my skin until the next day. I sprayed it around 6-7 p.m. and it was easily noticeable the next day until 10-11 a.m. PROJECTION AND SILLAGE: On MY skin it stays mostly close to the skin, maybe up to 50 cm for the first 3-4 hours, then it becomes a skin scent, which for me, for this type of fragrance, is more than fine. Sillage is not that bad, I don’t know how but it leaves a trail better than it projects it, at least for the first up to 2-3 hours that is. After that you can catch it when you move around but it’s stays close. THE SCENT: I’m going to be honest - for me this is a MASTERPIECE. It’s all about the TEA notes, the SUEDE, the WOODS, along with some LEMON and some CARDAMOM. I usually describe it as “getting inside the house and having a nice cup of bouquet tea after you’ve chopped some wood in a cool afternoon in late autumn”. It is both somewhat dry and soft, sophisticated. It’s cozy, comforting and inviting. SEASONALITY and OCCASIONS: It’s an all-year-round type of fragrance, but I don’t really associate it with Summer so it’s best for the rest of the seasons. In terms of occasion - it’s also an all-rounder, I can even see this as a date night scent as it is very inviting and it’s not loud, it’s more intimate in its projection. PRICE: For some reason I still haven’t gotten it, but in Bulgaria it’s between 65 and 85 EUR depending on whether it’s on discount or not. For ME - and I want to make sure that people understand this - FOR ME, as it performs so well, and I like the scent so much, I think the price is fair. OVERALL (again, in MY opinion): 8.5/10

I'm just getting to know this one but I'm inclined to think it's almost a shame that so many reviews here lament the presence of this or that ill-defined note beneath the surface. I think that's partly the point. This has just enough cardamom and citrus in the opening for either to find support in the other without taking charge (although the cardamom is spectacular on my skin), just enough cumin and certainly enough rubbery or animalic suede to take on a kind of savoury aspect--I swear I sometimes catch a kind of "brown" smell reminiscent of earthy coffee or something--and to avoid being super sweet or squeaky clean, enough of the lighter, zestier and herbal notes to hold both the cumin and the suede in check, enough tea and violet leaf to impart some ozonic lift in tandem even though neither steals the show, enough resinous wood to back up both that duo and the suede, etc. I'm not sure yet whether I love this fragrance, but I find it interesting and absolutely not hackneyed or generic. I wonder whether in some reviewers' vocabulary "generic" isn't just another word for "subtle", "restrained", maybe "ambient", and/or "just not toxically masculine enough". Edit: this seems stronger to me than the voting suggests. For me, it has a strong Fahrenheit-like petrol accord from the violet leaf and suede, and every now and then when I'm wearing this I get a whiff of a kind of sweaty earthiness (not just the cumin) that I really like. I think it has to be worn in moderation only but it's both sophisticated--its complexity makes me think of some Guerlain fragrances--and gutsy.

I was at a profumeria and as I was looking at the shelves of the same old fragrances I saw this beautiful new green bottle of Armani Eau de Cedre.. So I gave it a couple sprays to my wrist and this is my first impression.. Eau de Cedre opens up very fresh, their are some citrus notes in the opening however the citrus is not very noticeable.. The citrus is just there to help add a fresh tone to the opening along with a nice fresh herbal sage note which is a bit more prominent.. After a few minutes the fragrance gets warmer and darker.. There are some strong spice notes of cumin and cardamom in the heart so if cumin bothers you than this fragrance may not be for you.. There is a very nice prominent suede note in the base that runs throughout the scent and along with the cedar and smoky black tea it lends a smooth dark velvety vibe to this fragrance.. If the scent of a velvet jacket is what they were trying to portray than they did it well, a nice dark green velvet jacket.. Eau de Cedre smells very masculine, classy, and elegant.. Overall Eau de Cedre is a very nice and well done fragrance.. I find it to be quite different and unique from most recent releases.. Eau de Cedre is definitely a bit more mature than Eau de Nuit or Eau de Aromes so keep that in mind.. It almost smells like something that would have been released in the late 90s era.. I was impressed with this fragrance, I definitely look forward to getting to know it better in the future.. Eau de Cedre is the first Armani fragrance that has intrigued me to the point of wanting to buy a bottle..

| Armani - Eau de Cèdre | I got this perfume as a gift long before I got into perfumes. Back then I found warm perfumes not so interesting since a lot of older gentlemen were wearing warmer perfumes where I grew up. It was collecting dust on the shelf and 2 years later I go back and get a sniff. This perfume is extremely unique to be a designer. We have just a bit of citrus notes and a harmony of other things going on but the most prominent note to me here is the black tea and cardamom. Cedar appears a little later to my nose maybe around an hour after application but the tea and cardamom are there to stay. I've gotten a lot of compliments wearing this perfume outside from people who usually don't really mention anything abt my perfumes. It's an elegant scent. You peobably won't be the sexiest smelling guy in the room wearing this when there are other guys wearing Dior suavage or aventus on a rainy day BUT you're gonna be the classiest guy who chose the right peefume for the occasion. It does smell good on women as well. I'd find it sophisticating if I smell a woman wearing this and I'd find it much more attractive than most other designer female perfumes on a girl.

It was quite a journey with this one! I love it! I was looking for something special, something unique with aromatic, green and woody notes, something calming, maybe a bit of a spiritual scent. I searched alot, until I found Eau de Cedre. It is a masterpiece, pure art, indeed special and unique! I don't care about the brand, if I ever find this scent in a cheap bottle, I'll wear it even happier. In fact, I think it smells so good that any brand who would produce this scent would grow enormously and I have no idea why it isn't much more popular. I guess it's because this is not a marketing product, but a perfumery product. Maybe this is what Armani wanted? Anyway, I am glad it's not popular! To me it smells like heaven, such a calming scent, even though at first it felt a bit "stingy" from the spices i think. Such an original scent, too bad it doesn't last forever, but it's EDT. Not sure where it comes from but it makes me think of myrrh, I guess that's the spiritual side of the scent. Too bad it's been discontinued, but who knows, maybe in a few years Armani will bring it back. If so, I only hope there will be a EDP version also, at least. Smell: 10/10 Longevity: 7/10 Silage: 6/10

UPDATE: I received the bottle for christmas 2016, it is still my favourite cologne. I will likely never find anything anywhere near as good. It is amazing. I don't actually own the bottle, however I sample it at Sephora and Shoppers Drug Marts quite frequently. If I could bathe in this fragrance, I would. I've never loved a fragrance this much since Hugo Boss Energise which got me into fragrances. It starts off with a very floral-citrus scent which is nice, however over about half an hour the cedar and sage start to come through which starts to bring the frag to life. Then at over an hour in, the scent truly blossoms. It turns into the best smell I have ever smelled. The floral stays, but it's accompanied by a spicy aroma and a very light sweetness. I would say the dry down is akin to freshly baked cinnamon buns, but not a synthetic recreation, the real thing. I tend to wear this fragrance on my clothes, rather than skin as it projects better and clings longer. Quite a good sized silage, arm and a half length. I've gotten many compliments, many more than any other fragrance.

The marketing team at Armani missed the mark a bit here. There is only a hint of cedar, if any at all- certainly not enough to make it into the name of the fragrance! And if there is a "jungle accord" in this, it must be a concrete jungle. Eau Cedre is highly urbane, metrosexual, even mild-mannered...I suppose they did get the "velvet jacket" image correct. But pettiness aside, it is lovely. Do not expect a citrus/aromatic experience like one gets with the original Eau, though it lists similar notes. For me, the tea and floral accords dominate this fragrance with only hints of some of the other notes listed. It shares a similar vibe with several female perfumes I have smelled in the past, making this come across as quite unisex. But it is an extremely stylish and smooth operator, not a single rough patch from opening to dry down. Cedre is a daring recent release from Armani as it avoids the heavy vanilla/tonka/ambroxan/cashmeran/etc trends of the last ten years. Bravo for that! Great fragrance for work/classy events where you want to smell subtly superb.

Just smelled it. To me it doesn't smell woody, but very green. My brain is getting high off the smell trying to figure out what this is. Something new finally. I can't say that anything I smelled before up to this point reminds me of this. It's just mellow, smooth and "different". Violet usually gives off this deep ephemeral otherwordly vibe that is percieved as original or different, so I would venture to say this has a lot of violet. The tea is more apparent in dry down I absolutely love that it's not sweet, that is the nineties vibe people are talking about. We know everything 2010 and forwards became really sweet, either gourmandy sweet or ambergris sweet. I really like it as I keep smelling my hand. It's so inoffensive and I can't imagine anyone disliking this and those who hate perfume tolerating this, as it's so smooth. I see this as a great grab for spring or summer, suiting a confident man who wants to smell sporty fresh yet mysterious. Signature potential. Mouth watering freshness. Comforting and soothing. A true masterpiece - 10/10.

Armani did an outstanding job with modernizing the "green" genre by creating an incredibly smooth and well-blended scent. Still, the linear Eau de Cèdre is one I go back and forth on whether I am truly a fan. I think the issue for me is the sweetness, likely stemming from the cedar, violet leaf, and cardamon, which can at times be domineering or cloying. But on a chilly or balmy day, or right after a long rainfall, the sweetness is cozy and comforting, and is clean and classy smelling. While I may not wear this on warm, sunny days, it is quite versatile otherwise, as far as formality (casual or formal), age, seasonality (excluding hot days), time of day, and gender (this is definitely unisex IMO). Eau de Cèdre flew under the radar among modern green fragrance releases. I could see this becoming a high-demand bottle in the future once it is no longer produced. Score: 8 out of 10 Would I purchase a replacement bottle? I would purchase a replacement bottle, however, not a lot available online at the moment.

This one became my signature fragrance rather accidentally. Was in a perfume store with my GF because I saw they had a nice sale on a bottle I wanted of another fragrance. As we were there we started discovering some more perfumes because there was such a huge sale and we had time to kill so why not? Then she calls my name and says "you have to try this one! I love it! Do you know it?", and it was Armani Eau de Cèdre in her hand. I had no idea about this perfume and never had I heard of it. As soon as I take a whiff from this I was in love. Of course that my partner loving it had a influence but I'm exceptionally picky with fragrances. This one was the first time I was instantly surrendered to a fragrance. I am wearing it every day for 3 days and already got compliments in the office. What a wonder. Dry down is leathery and slightly spicy. Stays alive for 10 hours easily on my skin. If I go to the gym after work it comes back to life in a majestically powerful way that I can't explain. Easy 10/10 for me.

Armani Eau Cedre is a woody, green and spicy fragrance. Its smell is very pleasant and elegant. It smells spicy of cardamom with some green accord of sage and violet leaves that also enhance the tea note. It also has a light suede accord that gives it elegance and gives it a powdery feel. Its smell is linear, my perception has been that it smells almost the same from start to finish. Only in the drying phase does it feel more woody, with its cedar and suede accord. I think it's a fragrance for intermediate seasons like spring and autumn, for special situations where you dress elegant and/or casual, but where you don't want your fragrance to be noticed more than your presence. Its longevity is not bad, it lasted 7 hours with me. approximately, but its aromatic sillage is close to the skin, with a projection of about 15 cm. To be a flanker of the Eau Pour Homme line it is not at all similar to any of the other fragrances, only in its elegance, which is the common denominator of the entire line.

The mark of a great fragrance is whether the notes work together or not and how they collectively dry down, you'd think that tea, and black tea at that wouldn't work with heavy leathery and woody notes but you'd be very wrong, I bought a decant of this just to see what the fuss is all about, and I'll admit I wasn't particularly very impressed at first, don't get me wrong I thought it was nice but not great, the black tea note caught me by surprise at first, it is full on tea in your face, gave it 15 minutes and now my hand is glued to my nose. I think this is maybe the best from the Armani house, forget about stronger with you or the code collections, this is the stuff you want right here, you can thank me later. The dry down is definitely reminding me of Xerjoff Mefisto with that beautiful green musky touch, I ordered a full bottle and can't wait until I get it. Beautiful, absolutely beautiful...!!!

One of the smoother rides in my collection, if not for Code would probably be the smoothest. And speaking of Code, that citrus is here in Cedre, it still works beautifully, and it still has a habit of saying hello when you may have thought "goodbye"...that is the part I enjoy most, the tiny squeeze into the Black Tea. I get the sense that this all sits on a pillowy bed of various wood shavings...always supporting, never dominating. Have truly enjoyed this one since Christmas Day, and will probably admire it from afar once warmer temps return. One issue, and it is for bottle aficionados: I have no emerald/"Heineken" greens on my shelf, and, yeah, I admit I was kinda excited for one...but this is not, it is much more of a Jade/Olive in both real and artificial light. Still a standout in this regard, and like the fragrance, itself, pure class.

There's just not enough good things to write about this fragrance but I'll give it a try anyway..!! There are two kinds of people who wear perfumes, the kind who just wanna smell good regardless of what's they're wearing, and the kind who wants to smell unique and wants compliments, and the later kind is basically us, you and I the fragrance enthusiasts. And to that end Armani Eau de Cedre is as unique as they come, fresh, alluring, and just magnificent. Whereas Casamorati Mefisto is to me the best tea fragrance ever, Eau de Cedre is just as good, the former smells like green tea and the later like beautiful black tea. People would go mental over this and gladly pay $200-300 for a bottle if it was made by Xerjoff or Creed.

Beautiful scent that is much less green than you would think given the name and the bottle style. On first spray in the air it smells like Johnson Baby Shampoo for some reason, but quickly develops on skin to a delicate tea fragrance. I could have sworn there was a tiny bit of oud in there before looking up the notes, but I guess it's just my nose. Main players are black tea with a hint of suede/leather lurking in the background which gives it a masculine edge. Smells very sophisticated, elegant and clean, no sweetness for those youngins. Edit: Having spent a couple of more months with it and trying it out extensively, this is one of the best smelling fragrances I've ever put my nose on. Love, love, love it.

It's my new prey or I'm the prey of this scent since I tried in the shop:) The initial smell is like the older brother Eau de nuit, without pink pepper and not as powdery, fresher, lighter. It's very inviting and seductive like the predecessor, easier to wear in hot weather. At the same time I feel someting weird in the composition, I think the sage, I can smell the same note in Armani Lui, so yes the sage plays the other role beside of cardamom. After couple of hours smells like cereal, not too sexy at this part, but I love the first 1-2 hours. The performance is average or lower, lasts on my skin about 4-5 hours, sillage is closer to the skin:( Perfect in Spring/Autumn:)

For me, the most prominent notes in this fragrance are sage, cardamom, black tea, suede and cedar. It's earthy, woody, a bit herbaceous, a bit sweet, and overall very sexy and addictive to me. The dry down of this fragrance draws the imagination to the image of a handsome, well-dressed man who carries a leather briefcase who is sitting comfortably reading in an old library. Rain is trickling down the half-open window panes. The faint smell of freshly wet garden herbs creeps in with the breeze from time to time. And every now and again, you swear you can catch the smell of the librarian's freshly brewed cup of tea even though she's on the opposing side of the bookshelves.

@Endymion - Eau de Cedre is not soft at all! Please take my advice and go test this out a bit more, perhaps on skin.. It projects very very well and it lasts on my skin all day.. I wake up the next morning and I can still smell it on my skin and that rarely happens.. Eau de Cedre really does perform very well, and I am glad it does because it is gorgeous! As far as comparing it to CK One I can't help but laugh at that, they have absolutely nothing in common at all! Eau de Cedre not only has nothing in common with CK One but Eau de Cedre is in it's own league.. I think your nose might have been playing tricks with you or perhaps this fragrance should be tested on skin..

My boyfriend and I went searching for a new cologne for him and I got a sample of Giorgio Armani Eau de Cedre. Boy am I glad I did. I love this scent. Now, the first time I smelled it on him I hated it. But that was immediately after the initial spray. I felt like the woody cedar notes were overpowering and suffocating any other notes. About 20 minutes later it was like a completely different fragrance. It was still masculine and woody with cedar notes but a wonderful sweetness had developed and it perfectly complimented the cedar. I absolutely love this scent! If you smell this cologne and you dont like it, just give it a bit to settle and see if it changes for you.

I just got this fragrance today after trying a sample last week and falling in love with it immediately ! Beautiful, smooth woody fragrance. Sensual yet professional and very well blended. I managed to score a bottle for just $65 from Shop.com and I'm happy I did because I see that it goes for about a hundred or so in most other online stores. I find it similar to Cade by L'occitane although the ingredients are different. It has a bit of Eau de Baux as well but I like it better than the former 2. I was planning to blind buy Cade before I sampled it but I'm now glad I bought this instead. Blind buy worthy in my opinion for the lovers of great woody scents.

Eau de Cedre smells masculine,classy,elegant woody and aromatic.. This is one of the most beautiful cedre with a few cardamon base fragrance i have ever smelled.(a clean spicy cedar and cardamom).. their are some citrus notes in the opening(lime,bergamot) however the citrus is not very noticeable..opening is a nice fresh herbal sage note which is a bit more prominent. After a few minutes it gets warmer and darker(better).. There are some strong spice notes of cumin and cardamom in the heart(i smelled).. It is a good perfume for wearing in cold weather. The longevity is very well. The projection is medium. thx

This is one of those off-kilter ones that ended up being a go to for me in the winter, sort of sits in my brain in the same space as Bulgari Man in Black, although less boozy. Weirdly also enjoy it the same way as Bulgari Pour Homme, as a kind of feeling neat and tidy winter frag - perhaps it is the dryness of the tea notes, although this is much more Iso-E-Super-forward, which feels massive in this. In fact if you oversprayed BPH with Molecule 01 you might even get close to reproducing this, given it this is out of production and so fetching double original price on ebay.

I do not understand all the dislike for this one. I sampled this one in store today & I really like the scent. I have not given it a full wearing but I am tempted to get it. It is not too strong. A very smooth trendy cedar with the other notes. I think it's really great on first impression. I usually am not a big fan of Armani fragrances. There is a common note in many of them. and sometimes something sweet that puts me off. But I really like this one. (Something like Armani's version of the "Guerlainade") SO I guess try before you buy it.

My father wears this, it smells like distinguished, it doesn’t make a strong impact, but it does make a long lasting impact. It’s not here to get your attention it’s here to claim its presence, not an attention seeker, an attention grabber, demands respect. Sedat notes are very clean and leaves an intellectual, grounded after effect. I wear it as a woman, especially in office meeting settings, it does have a silent power. Very underrated which is good. It’s not for everyone for sure.

WoW the projection on this one is solid rock. This is such a breakthrough IMO considering the large amount of crap designer fragrances being released lately. I won't say the smell is great but very good. I could associate it with another fragrance from late 80's/early 90's but can't remember which one. DO NOT test it on paper , I did and I hated it. Don't be shy, go to Sephora hold the bottle and spray yourself out to appreciate it. Definitely worth the try. Bravo Armani!

Armani did a decent job with the "Eau" line so far.. This Eau de Cedre looks like it may be something nice.. The green bottle looks beautiful and intrigues me.. The notes look like this Eau de Cedre could be an interesting scent.. I will keep my eyes open for this one, and will try it as soon as I run into it.. I am waiting for Armani to release something that I would like to make a part of my collection..

To me, the best Armani fragrance. It's a simple and linear composition but it is done to perfection. The tea and silky suede in this beauty is just simply exquisite. Its clean, its gentle, its subtle and very classy. I revisited a decant I had stashed away and immediately purchased myself a bottle. Such a tragedy to hear it is now discontinued. Seems to be a common trend for designer offerings.

This has now become a staple in my wardrobe. Mane's Pure Jungle Essence gives it that spicey kick that I love. But sweet cardamommy spices, not peppery. Very smooth, sophisticated, and relaxing. It took me months to realize this. I think because of the way it was marketed and the name, I kept thinking "green". But now that I have gotten to know it well, I think warm tones instead.

The best-smelling fragrance I have ever encountered. Lemon, tea, violet leaf, suede, sage, cardamom, cedar - all masterfully composed by Mathilde Bijaoui. Sadly, longevity isn’t great, but I combat this by bringing a travel sprayer with me for re-ups. My all-time favourite, and I absolutely love that I don’t ever smell it on anyone else. It’s a CRIME that this was discontinued.

Temiz ve odunsu. Çiçeksi tarafı da yoğun tabii ki. Aşağıda "the yulong" gibi denmiş bence o daha "çay" bir parfüm. Bunda temiz bir çiçeksi hissiyatta var. Bence tam bir sohbahar parfümü. Pürüssüz fakat çok komplekste değil. Özel gün için tercih etmem ama dolabımda görmekte mutlu ediyor. Birkaç ayda bir keyif için sıkıyorum. Ofis ortamında çok iyi gidecek bir parfüm.

Very unique and nice smelling. The opening reminds me of walking into a fancy soap store, in a good clean way. The tea is revealed a bit more just shortly after opening but can still be smelled in the opening. If you like tea fragrances like I do, then you will probably like this one. Great for warmer seasons if you care about seasons when it comes to fragrances.

It's still on Armani's website here in Canada, although it's listed as out of stock. The reality is it's effectively discontinued. Either way, it's quite hard to find. This is a criminally underrated frag from the masterful Mathilde Bijaoui. I am absolutely thrilled that this isn't more popular, because that means there's more for me. I buy every one I find!

Another hidden gem but this time in a very successful brand rather than indie or small brands This fragrance doesn’t get talked about for some reason All I know is that when they discontinue it people will go crazy trying to get a bottle Good thing I have mine already Longevity is great and after 6 to 7 hours you still can smell some whiffs of the fragrance

I first reviewed this a year or two ago. It's not an absolute favourite of mine, and using it calls for restraint as, though delicate in its way, it has the capacity to be overpowering, but anyhow, this fragrance is pretty much a masterclass in sillage. I'll catch a whiff of this stuff billowing up as I'm moving along, and it's lovely--very uplifting.

The sage is a great open. Cardamom, tea and cedar make this fragrance sweet with a suede/woody heart. I wish it had more longevity and sillage, though. Edit: I wore this to work yesterday. I kept getting whiffs of it throughout the 8 (kitchen) hours. I got home and could still catch it in the air. Longevity is strong. It's just subtle and beautiful.

Great frag. To my nose the violet, cedar and black tea notes are very noticeable. It's a mature scent, and by that i mean refined, not old. Just like every other perfume in this line, it smells classy in a timeless way. Longevity is great, 9h on my skin, which is rare for green frags. Wanna smell rich and, well, green? This one won't disappoint!

To echo what clintjr82 has just posted below, I REALLY want there to be an EDP version of this. It’s such a great scent, but the longevity is under two hours on my skin. Even still, this remains one of my all-time faves. But good luck finding it anywhere, because I buy every single one I see (... evil cackle...)!

This is an underrated fragrance. FOr me, it's not about the ceder. It's a black tea, a little bit of suede. The smell reminds of a very expensive leather car seat. It's dry and sweet. Very pleasant and super underrated. 8/10 for smell 8/10 for longevity and projection 9.5/10 for uniqueness 8.5/10 overall rating

aromatic, a bit woody, calming scent! black tea and cardamom are the stars here. unfortunately it's so hard to find the full bottle in my country. this is the definiton of slow living fragrance. i can imagine someone charming, soft spoken, mature, mentally and financially stable rocking this. thumbs up!

If this was in a Frederic Malle bottle or a Xerjoff bottle people would be singing its praise day and night, that is how good this is, got my full bottle today and I'm absolutely head over heals. don't know who created this but whoever it is, they are a master of their craft, I tip my hat to you...!!!

Silky class smooth luxury ! this is green yet smooth and mellow 4 season (maybe not for super hot summer days) great for cool summer date nights suit up or casual just wow 4 sprays is all you need to leave a nice trail and have a nice scent bubble if the wind catches you, people will smell you 10/10

Armani Eau de Cèdre is my go-to summer scent. It’s fresh at first, then turns into this smooth, clean cedarwood that just feels right in the heat. What I love most is the sillage — people do notice it. It leaves a trail without ever being too much. Simple, elegant, and easy to wear. It just works.

Wow! I blind bought this hidden gem and I am so happy that I did! The scent profile is unique! Juicy aromatic bergamot combined with a tea note, and I get swiffs of suede. Very deep green and fresh fragrance. Good sillage and performance. My wife loves it and I get compliments everywhere I go.

This is the perfect leather scent. It's floral with that fantasy tea note (that doesn't resemble tea at all, but for some reason perfumers call this uplifting floral smell "tea") and real quality leather, like new shoes, jackets, car seats. It's al all season elegant scent

My fav. So balanced, could be unisex, I am not in love with the Violet/Sage opening, but then it reminds me my old discontinued love Gucci Pour H'omme ll, unluckily this one also discontinued, I have a refined taste in parfumes I think :)

Although promoted as mens fragrance, i find it unisex as there isfreshness within that masculine warm scent. After awhile, it smells fresher and fresher, with a hint of woody or musky scent. It is like fresh masculine scent. Love it!

Armani Eau de Cèdre is one of the best designers I've tried. It smells magnificently masculine and fairly not in-your-face type of scent. Surprisingly, it has great projection and longevity on my skin. I hope it is not discontinued.
