The note of Cedriris unfolds as a complex tapestry, a masterful fusion of dry, austere woods and a profoundly rooty, powdery elegance. Initially, it presents with a crisp, almost sharp opening reminiscent of freshly shaved cedarwood, possessing a clean, slightly balsamic, and pencil-shavings quality. This woody backbone is robust, giving the impression of solidity and structure. As it settles, the true heart of the orris emerges, weaving in a velvety, slightly cool, and profoundly sophisticated powderiness. This isn't a sweet or cosmetic powder, but rather an earthy, starchy, almost damp-soil-like quality that is utterly unique, often described as metallic, leathery, or even carrot-like in its most nuanced expressions. It carries a subtle, green-violet facet that whispers rather than shouts. The texture transitions from initial dryness to a soft, almost buttery skin-feel, evolving slowly from a prominent heart note into an enduring, grounding base. Its projection is typically moderate, leaning intimate, while its longevity is exceptional, anchoring a composition for many hours with its elegant, lingering warmth.
