Created by Julien Rasquinet and introduced in 2024, CEDRE by Headspace is a woody composition built around the quiet strength and elegance of cedar. Rather than presenting wood as something rigid or traditional, this Eau de Parfum gives it movement, texture and a distinctly contemporary allure. The result is a scent that feels polished yet expressive, with a clear structure softened by warmth and depth.
The opening is shaped by cumin, a spice note that immediately brings character and definition. It creates a dry, vibrant introduction with an unmistakable edge, setting the tone for the heart of the fragrance. At the center, cedarwood takes focus with a clean, sculpted presence, while nutmeg adds nuance and dimension through its warm, aromatic spice.
This pairing gives CEDRE its signature balance: architectural wood illuminated by spice and enriched with subtle sensuality. As the fragrance settles, ambroxan introduces a smooth, ambery effect that expands the composition with modern softness. Vanilla rounds the edges with a creamy touch, and tobacco adds a deeper, more sophisticated shadow, enhancing the sense of warmth without obscuring the cedar-led identity.
Unisex in spirit and refined in execution, CEDRE wears like a study in contrasts: crisp yet enveloping, structured yet inviting. Presented in a 100 ml Eau de Parfum concentration, it offers a thoughtful interpretation of the woody family for those drawn to fragrances with presence, texture and contemporary style.
