Cedrat

by Aurélien Guichard

Matière Première Cedrat is a Cologne launched in 2019, created by Aurélien Guichard. Cedrat opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Pepper and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Mate. Matière Première's Cedrat carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

Cedrat is a surprisingly divisive freshie for its simple composition. Expect a vibrant, natural citrus and a subtle, green warmth underneath. Just don't expect it to hang about all day.

About

Cedrat opens with a gorgeous, zesty burst of bergamot and bright citron, smelling incredibly natural and uplifting. This vibrant citrus is swiftly joined by a kick of black and pink pepper, adding a fresh, spicy edge that prevents it from becoming overly sweet. As it settles, a smooth, aromatic mate note emerges, bringing an earthy-green, almost tea-like warmth that grounds the composition. It's clean, refined, and surprisingly elegant for a fresh scent.
