I don’t get cedar, tea or smoke…. I get Country Time lemonade mix before you add water. Seriously, that’s what this smells like. Disappointing.

TeaAndRoses, yes, to me this is chalky, powdery sweet tarts. Slight smell of black tea and cedar, but the effect is more chalky candy. ?

Thunderous! The opening is a powerful blast! A cedar tree explodes showering you with singed sap! Too quickly its potency drains away . . . although this allows other select notes to make an appearance. Remaining is more of an incense/tea filled cedar box made of the tree shards. Soft sillage and longevity. One of the best openings ever – I’m going to spray a lot!

I agree with the other reviewers here who say that the silage is basically non-existent, and the longevity is bad. I’d say 2 hours-worth.
I don’t get the smoky or exotic qualities that others have noted here. To me (and my wife, who originally pointed it out) it smells like the clothes of old people, the people who used to believe that cedar-lined closets or cedarwood oil would extend the longevity of their clothes. It’s pretty much just cedar with a teensy hint of spice (the “tea” I suppose) all the way through… not very dynamic.
All in all, I’m glad to have tried it because it’s different from traditional “mens” scents, but it’s still a pass for me.

On my clothes, this is a really nice, strong black tea with smoky, woody incense. On my skin it smells a little less smoky, and there’s something sweet-tart, like kumquats that joins with the cedar wood and tea. I can faintly smell the tart note on the fabric, but it really stands out on my skin.
The general consensus seems to be that Cedarwood Tea is fairly masculine, and while I agree this would be fine on a man, I also really like it on my own (lady) skin. I think it’s correctly labeled as a unisex fragrance.
I just have a sample of the water perfume, which sadly lasts only about an hour and has minimal sillage.

If you like your tea dark and your cedar smokey, then this one is for you. I was looking to compare tea notes against Gucci PH II which is one of my faves. But here the tea note gets overpowered, as midsummer noted below. To me this would work best in cold weather while Gucci II could be worn year round. Longevity is excellent. Although this is listed as a unisex scent this leans far towards the masculine side to me.

This is probably the most masculine CB scent I have ever sampled. It’s exactly as advertised – the smell of cedar and tea, pure and simple. This is the way I’d expect a Maine mountain man to smell after a shower and a shave – piney, chill and macho. The tea note is mostly overpowered by the woodsy notes. I’d love for a boyfriend to wear this stuff – but at $90 a bottle, I find it unlikely that any guy I know will invest! It lasted a long time on my skin, though!
