Affinessence Combava Cedrat is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Nicolas Bonneville. Combava Cedrat opens with Lime, settles into a heart of Mint, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Cardamom. Affinessence's Combava Cedrat carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Combava Cedrat is a freshie with a serious price tag, and it splits the room. For some, it's a zesty, long-lasting lime dream; for others, it's just overpriced citrus. Approach with caution - and maybe a sample first.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its fresh, energetic citrus and mint profile makes it suitable for casual and everyday wear, with some finding it pleasant for office settings. While a long-lasting freshie is great for sports, its high price point might deter regular use there. The strong citrus focus makes it less ideal for formal events.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

A vibrant burst of sharp, green lime hits you first, intensely aromatic like kaffir lime zest. This invigorating citrus then softens, mingling with a cool, leafy mint that keeps things crisp and clean. As it settles, a warm, slightly spicy cardamom emerges, grounding the freshness with a woody depth that hints at a sophisticated dry down, like a refined lime sorbet with a subtle woody edge.
