Latest Reviews of Cedar Violet
On application, I smell a shock of alcoholic vodka and rich butter. The butter is very much the star, though behind it, I can smell some 00's-style cedar and clove, paired up with a sawdusty wood note. Given time, the butter remains prominent, but it's joined by that coconutty Australian sandalwood popularized by Santal 33.
Chemically speaking, I think there's something here that doesn't quite register, possibly a side effect of that alcoholic blast on top. I have to work hard to smell anything other than the butter, but this somehow also feels really rich, like there's a chemical here that's knocking out my nose and keeping me from smelling everything. This is an effect I don't like in perfumes, so I'm just voting Neutral.
As a side note, I really enjoy buttery wood perfumes but would suggest Costume National Homme or Tom Ford's Ebene Fume instead.
