Cedar Perfumes & Colognes: 3,234 Fragrances With Cedar

Cedar perfumes make up 3,234 fragrances in our catalog, with cedar used as a base note 78% of the time. It smells dry, woody and slightly resinous, like a freshly sharpened pencil or a cedar chest. Cedar is widely used as a base note that gives a fragrance backbone, and many listings use it interchangeably with cedarwood. It is most often paired with tarragon, carnation and cyclamen, and these perfumes tend to be spicy and fresh. Well-known examples include L'Homme Idéal Extrême by Guerlain, Club de Nuit Sillage by Armaf and Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent.
