Maya Njie Nordic Cedar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Maya Njie. Nordic Cedar opens with Cardamom, settles into a heart of Cedar and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Musk and Amber. Maya Njie's Nordic Cedar carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive Nordic enigma. Some find it a smooth, subtle cedar and cardamom delight, while others are baffled by its 'clean and sterile' nature, likening it to wet wipes or furniture polish. Definitely test before you commit.

About

Nordic Cedar opens with a bright, almost effervescent cardamom, quickly settling into a dry, aromatic cedar heart. Earthy patchouli and a gentle, slightly sweet amber provide a warm, musky base. It's a woody scent that manages to feel both crisp and comforting, with a clean undertone.
