Cedar Leaves

Cedar leaves are known for their fresh, green, and slightly woody fragrance note with crisp and camphorous undertones. Their scent profile is natural, invigorating, and aromatic, adding a bright and forest-like quality to perfumes. Cedar leaves impart an earthy freshness and are often used as a top or middle note to enhance the liveliness and depth of a fragrance. They pair beautifully with citrus, woody, and floral notes, contributing to compositions that are vibrant, sophisticated, and reminiscent of the outdoors.

History & Production: Cedar trees, including species like Juniperus virginiana (Eastern Red Cedar), are native to North America and other parts of the world. Cedar leaf oil is obtained through steam distillation of the fresh leaves and twigs, preserving their green and resinous aroma. Cedar leaves have been used historically for their aromatic and medicinal properties by indigenous cultures. In modern perfumery, cedar leaf notes are appreciated for their ability to add a crisp, natural element that enhances the complexity and freshness of fragrances, evoking the tranquility and vitality of forested landscapes.
