Description
Cologne Cédrat by Matiere Premiere offers a vibrant and enduring take on a classic citrus cologne, launched in 2019. It opens with the raw, almost spicy freshness of Sicilian cédrat zest, immediately brightened by Italian bergamot. This initial burst smoothly transitions into a lively heart, where Madagascan black pepper and Argentinian pink pepper introduce a fresh, spicy character. The composition is grounded by Paraguayan mate absolute, which emphasizes a unique tea-like facet, extending the fragrance's freshness and ensuring a lasting trail. This scent masterfully balances zesty brightness with a subtle warmth, making it a sophisticated choice for those seeking a long-lasting citrus experience.
