Cedars in the sunlight
Yes, a strange headline, but that is my first association. The fragrance has a radiant brightness, like shimmering, clean air with a hint of cedar wood which, warmed by the sun, unfolds its scent.

I have to agree with the previous speaker, the opening is a bit sharp. This is probably due to the double dose of pepper, which is but quickly evaporated and then only a gentle and pleasant spice contributes.
After that, I smell a slightly fruity note, I do not know if that is the pink pepper, from the listed flowers, however, I can sniff far and wide nothing. Instead, an incredible dryness arises in the heart note, you could almost think there is some juniper in the game, but not dominant, the cedar wood always remains the main actor, is rather emphasized by this dryness and even more present. In the base discreetly joins some musk, gives the cedar something juicy and soft and underlines the warm character of the fragrance.

A little bit it reminds me of Super Cedar by Byredo, without its smoky note, or even Molecule 01 or other ISO-E super fragrances, only that Le Cèdre comes across much more natural and tangible. I can practically see the cedars in front of me here, hear the branches crack under my feet, and feel the warm sun at my back. What he has in common with the aforementioned fragrances, however, is a certain brightness, something radiant, which I can not describe differently.

The durability is good, I can perceive him a good 12 hours on me. Sillage I would estimate in the midfield, is difficult to test at the moment, but in no way room-filling.
Conclusion: woody, bright, clean, warm and very natural. If you like this scent, definitely test!

A real Miller Harris
Actually, I just wanted to write a statement, but then saw that no comment exists yet. Someone should honor this fragrance and yet describe something more detailed, so I will try that.

I am a huge fan of Miller Harris. Unlike other brands, I find the somewhat masculine scents to be particularly successful, so I had no problem blindly purchasing this fragrance when the opportunity presented itself. I still remember the first spray attempt on the back of my hand and perceived: razor sharp wood. I then put the bottle and packaging in the back and forgot about it for a long time. It was too masculine for my little one.

Lately, also caused by home office, where I do not have to take on my colleagues olfactory consideration, I do me more often Terre de Bois (also by MH) in stronger concentration. Certainly not an office scent, but so pleasant... Then I remembered Le Cedre and thought to give it a chance again. Here it helped to empty the tube of the sprayer first to reduce the sharpness.

First, the mallet again. Then I noticed that if I stay at least 4 inches away with my nose, the scent is quite different. It is a floating, medium-weight scent of wood and peat, flowers and foliage, which changes constantly depending on the distance alive. I've noticed this with others of the newer MHs, and I wear them all on the back of one hand only, to liven up the scent by constantly changing distance and moving around.

The fragrance lasts a very long time, is even after 24 hours still creamy to perceive, although often come into contact with water. To re-spray, I look for another skin area, so that the component that remains the longest, does not amplify inharmoniously.

This fragrance is not very perfumey, but just smells pleasant. At times, it also smells very clean like fresh laundry. As I said, he is changeable by movement. Thus, you can also really call him unisex.

It reminds me slightly of Nasomatto and China White in its floaty way, but without being morbid. I still have the clear bottle with paper label on it. Now that I've gotten to know the fragrance better, I can understand why Miller Harris has kept it in their range, albeit in a black bottle. They have cut down their range quite a bit - I'm very curious to see in which direction it will continue!

A great peppery opening which continues into wood. Properly a great scent that stays with about 4-5hrs. Sillage is ok, but sadly not worth $
