Spanish Cedar

Czech & Speake Spanish Cedar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Spanish Cedar opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Blackberry, Plum, Galbanum, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood, and Cedar. Czech & Speake's Spanish Cedar carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper British eccentric: divisive, sophisticated, and unapologetically mature. Some find it a nostalgic masterpiece, others a dusty relic. It clearly leans traditional and won't be for everyone, but if you fancy a bit of old-school charm, this could be your cuppa.

About

Spanish Cedar opens with a fleeting, sharp burst of bergamot, swiftly giving way to a rich, boozy plum and blackberry accord, spiced heavily with clove. This fruity sweetness mellows into a deep, smoky cedar and guaiac wood base, with creamy sandalwood providing a smooth finish. It evokes mulled wine sipped by a roaring fireplace in a grand, wood-panelled library.
