New perfume by a new line. I was excited to check out the new Cendres de The and some of their other new scents. So this was my first venture into the Phaedon line. This is a comfortable scent that is very clean, masculine and subtle. The cedar really comes out in the top notes, but then evens out into a nice woody with light musk scent. I typically lean towards heavier scents, but could see myself wearing this. It would fit the workplace very nicely. Given that, I don’t think I’ll be spending any money on a full bottle, but will just stick to enjoying the sample. I recommend this for those who like to smell clean and light…it’s old school with a twist.
Cendres de The Notes:
Cardamom, tea, myrrh, cedar, ho wood oil, musk
- Bone Rating: 3 out of 5 possible bones
- Scent: cedar, woody, clean
- Classification: Unisex but leans towards masculine
- Expense: Moderate – $125 for 100ml

I tried this scent. Not a fan. Reminded me of bug spray. No sillage or projection. The fragrance was interesting to say the least, nothing more. It is safe to say that there won’t be a full bottle of this stuff in my future anytime soon. Good review although you gave it a higher rating than I did in my review.

It’s been so long since I have sampled this, I’ll need to break it out again to see if I still feel the same way.
