Mancera Cedrat Boise is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Pierre Montale. Cedrat Boise opens with Spicy Notes, Bergamot, Lemon, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Fruity Notes, Patchouli, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Mancera's Cedrat Boise carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Cedrat Boise is a deeply divisive fruity-woody fragrance. For some, it's a versatile beast with a stunning dry down, for others, it's a scrubber smelling of burnt rubber, ashtrays or cleaning products. Definitely 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.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Cedrat Boise kicks off with a sharp, juicy burst of blackcurrant, lemon, and bergamot, quickly joined by an intriguing spicy note. As the citrus recedes, a fruity sweetness emerges, intertwined with an earthy patchouli. The dry down is a robust blend of woody notes - cedar and sandalwood - softened by vanilla, musk, and a prominent leathery accord. A hint of oakmoss adds a classic, slightly husky edge.
