The story behind the bottle.
Mineral Cedar by Scents of Wood is a Woody Aquatic fragrance created by perfumer Céline Barel and launched in 2020. The composition opens with a fresh spicy accord that cuts through the crisp citrus, leading to an aromatic heart anchored by lavender. This contrast creates a dynamic interplay between brightness and depth, culminating in a base of woody and amber notes that read as mineral-rich earth meeting cool water.
Apply one to two sprays initially; the citrus and aromatic notes are bright but fleeting. The woody and amber base develops slowly over time, so give it an hour before you reassess its presence on your skin.
