CEDRE

TO COINCIDE WITH THE 2024 CELEBRATIONS IN PARIS, HEADSPACE IS LAUNCHING CÈDRE. A MEETING BETWEEN A FAVOURITE PERFUME WOOD, RARELY USED IN SOLINOTE, AND A HEADSPACE FLAME, TO ILLUSTRATE THE ILLUMINATION OF PARIS, THE CITY OF LIGHT.

THE FLAME, FINALLY ARRIVED FROM MOUNT OLYMPUS FOR THE CELEBRATIONS, STRIKES THE WOOD OF THE MATCH LIKE A FORGOTTEN BOOK, MIRACULOUSLY UNEARTHED IN A BOOKSHOP. WE STROLL UP THE COURSE OF THE SEINE, "A RIVER FRAMED BY TWO ROWS OF BOOKS" AS CENDRARS WROTE, CARRYING WITH US THE SCENT OF PAPER AND THE SMELL OF WORDS. AS THE STREETLIGHTS COME ON AND NIGHT FALLS ON THE CITY OF LIGHT, WISPS OF WOOD DEPOSIT THEIR FUMAROLES IN THE BOTTLE.

A FLIGHT OF DRY WOODS SWIRLS THROUGH THE AIR, ENLIVENED BY THE SHIMMER OF NUTMEG AND CUMIN, BEFORE MEETING A HEADSPACE OF FLAME IN A CRACKLING AMBER AND VANILLA SCENT.

A MODERN, UNADORNED WOODY FRAGRANCE FEATURING TWO VARIETIES OF CEDAR: 'ATLAS' FOR ITS RESINOUS, LEATHERY NOTES, AND 'VIRGINIA' FOR ITS DRY, SPICY NOTES REMINISCENT OF PENCIL.
