Cedre Blanc opening has a lot going on and it’s very pleasant. There is zesty lime, green galbanum, fresh minty geranium and aromatic cardamom; all this is at the very top pushed by the woods and flowers (especially a very nice lily) at the bottom. A nicely balanced sweetness from flowers and a fruity accord is in contrast with a mild salty oceanic ambergris. The base is creamy but woody, sweet and salty.
7.5/10

Great fragrance!
My wife likes this also; goes on a little sweet with a lovely aqua feel with the accompaniment of citrus and woods; I do detect a bit of florals, however, not overbearing with the cedar making itself known throughout.
Cedre Blanc is nice and fresh and has great longevity. I think the silage is average however, projection is slightly above average.
This fragrance is not overpowering by any means-can be worn to work or out on the town and IMHO you’ll get great staying power. This one is very different from Aberdeen Lavender, which I own as well….you will not go wrong with this fragrance.
Projection: 7.5/10
Longevity: 7.5/10
Silage: 8/10
Performance: 8/10
Overall: 8/10

I would describe this as galbanum and jasmine over ambergris and woods. It opens with a brief splash of bergamot that lasts only a few minutes before the woody florals take over. The ambergris is so heavy that it leaves a waxy finish on your skin that you can sense to the touch. Surprisingly, ambergris doesn’t make the list. Don’t let the “Cedre” in the name fool you: this is as much a floral scent as it is woody. The cedar and sandalwood restrain the natural extroversion of the florals, creating an impression of dignity and self-control. Cedre Blanc is formal rather than sensual. It smells very expensive. I personally find it to be more suited to a woman than a man. Princess Diana might have worn it with a black blazer and white pants. I can also picture it on a man with fine features and a serious demeanour, perhaps Julian Assange or Niles Crane.
Refined and reserved.

Cedre blanc has a beautiful citrus over a creamy, woody base that hides behind whiffs of ocean air.
Something fruity and sweet lurks beneath…..green apple?
How is ambergris not listed in the notes? It clearly has a PROMINENT role.
I get an aquatic, woody aromatic. Like a log of Cedar washed up on the beach.
While I feel it may lean a tad masculine, Florals soften up the composition enough to make it fine for either sex.
(As a plus, my wife loves it on me)
You will certainly notice the cardamom (and even more so Bay leaf) but this is all about the Ambergris and Woods.
As it develops you are able to pick out some of the individual Wood notes more clearly.
Maybe imagine a mix up of Millesime Imperial, Viking, and Spice and Wood. That could get you close.
This is more deserving of the name Viking than the one who received it.
Had it been released into the main line under that name it certainly would’ve been better received.
Performance is about average and while it leans towards the summer months in feel I believe it could also work in cool weather.
In conclusion:
Very versatile and curiously overlooked member of the Creed lineup.
It’s unique yet has that familiar Creed DNA
At the prices this can be had for on the discount sites I’d recommend giving it a shot, you may just find yourself a gem.

Over the years, Creed has grown in astounding popularity. From it’s big #1 seller “Aventus” to it’s newly launched fragrance “Viking” which has become a holiday go-to gift for all men and women in life. Creed’s unique blend of bouquets has a sophisticated old world feel and yet contains such a current sentiment. For me, Creed has always painted portraits in my mind. Erolfa that takes me to Joaquín Sorolla’s painting “El Barco Blanco” a fresh, breezy, seaside dream. The mineralism of Silver Mountain Water trasnsports me to “The Great Bellringer” by Marko Pernhart. There are complexities but simple and elegant enough to be worn. Without a doubt, I knew I came to Creed at the right time for holiday shopping. Cedre Blanc is a stunning, radiant, voluptuous fragrance that reminds me of an entirely new portrait; my memory of my childhood in The South of France. The beautiful aroma of Spanish broom being lifted by the provincial breeze. The refreshing pomelo juice being squeezed into my jar. Fresh cut Lebanese cedars that aged and died on the cliffs. This was something my grandmother would adore to have.
The opening was a radiant mist of Spanish broom, and shasta lily. White, bright, illuminating. This fragrance remains wet and watery. I love that. It’s like I’m near a pond bordered with white florals in the end of May. There is a lot of green in the middle notes but it’s certainly not cardimom. I got a soft warm verbana, bay leaf, and toscanol for a little longevity. The dry down is elegant, a bit earthy, sort of dirty (maybe from a long day of sweat under the sun but that musky skin that flirts with florals).
God I just love the acqua originale line from Creed. This is one to take in your collection of parfums for a life time.

p003 – 2022-06-29:

First on, it’s water notes, citrus,a dusty note like iris and almost a cucumber note. Drying down, there’s tangerine and a pasty wood note that I’m liking less. That note goes away and leaves the lovely tangerine with the faint cucumber and a light wood feeling. Clean and fresh, not soapy, not sharp but still a bit aquatic. Unisex. It’s okay but I don’t feel it’s up to the level a Creed should command, especially at their prices.

Rather lightweight offering from Creed like all of the Acqua Originale quartet,with the possible exception of Iris Tuberose which is still a pale tuberose when compared to the powerhouse Malle Carnal Flower.
Pleasant enough but not really groundbreaking,even in the Creed stable.The cedar note is subdued and overpowered in my mind by the natural smelling bay leaf note.Other than that no notes really stand out.Nice smelling but the volume is turned way down as far as projection,sillage and wow factor is concerned.I use it was my daily work scent and have yet to get any compliment or comment whatsoever.
Luckily managed to pick this up for half the recommended retail price in David Jones Sydney store,a sure sign that it is well and truly on the way out (like the rest of the Acqua Originale experiment).

Creed cedre blanc isn’t something I typically go for.I’m not a Creed fan and citrusy-aromatic-woody scents aren’t my type at all but when my friend told me that it has turned to her type favorite(and she wasn’t typically into such fragrances too) curiosity overcame me so I asked her to bring her bottle so that I test it myself
It’s not bad.better than what I imagined.a fresh citrusy opening with a herbal aromatic twist and not too woody to let me down.I imagined it to be more on masculine side but nope,it would be good on both men and women.I enjoy it’s first hour without loving it.although not my type,it appears as a pleasant and refreshing scent to my nose.it’s made of high quality notes and has a light nature which makes it a safe choice for day wear in hot weather.after an hour or two flower notes start shining and turn it to something more beautiful and more feminine.unlike it’s initial phase which is a meh for me,I really like it’s drydown,not enough to pay it’s high price but now I can see why my friend likes it.it’s fresh and classy without being too much feminine or masculine,it feels calm and free in a simple,humble also high quality way.if you’re looking for something citrus-woody-floral without emphasize on any of mentioned accords,which is wearable,well-balanced and mild give it a try.it lasted on my skin for about five hours,sillage seems to be soft to moderate but I think if you spray it freely projection improves without turning to something overwhelming

so far this is my least favourite from the Acqua Originale line
Cedre Blanc opens with a sour blast of citrus spic and wood until it starts to air out a little then the white floral note starts to smoothen it out into a nicely blending scent
id say this scent is a safe one to wear to work or just on a causal day out since its not over powering or to in your face
longevity and projection is on the low side so feel free to pump away at the trigger
over all if your in the cedar dominating scents this is one to try
on to the next
ps even tho this scent is listed as unisex id say its better suited for a women

Pleasant, citrusy woody aromatic, light, not overbearing, lasts about an hour max 2. Not a love for me but it’s nice. Won’t be buying the full bottle.
I have 100+ niche samples for swap within Europe – updated spreadsheet of samples on my profile, get in touch!

Bluff! Questo Creed non è degno del nome che porta. Impalpabile se aggiungessi altri comenti sarei offensivo!!! Costa un occhio della testa per un prodotto che ……non vale niente! Ma è un Creed!!
Profumo 3/10
Sillage 0/1
Longevità 0/1

Like Millisime Imperial but with a synthetic wood base.

Fresh, green, another sleeper of a note list that on testing gave me the ubiquitous citric bergamot; that 20-30-50 lime, lemon and bitter orange combo, and then the culinary spice and warmth greeness.
The florals give it some refinement and as usual with Creeds, the Quality is top floor of the building.
But, it’s simply nothing that even Creed haven’t offered in terms of their even recent lines (Original cologne, Erolfa,, er, Vetiver-geranium,,even?!)
Geranium and Vetiver seen almost everywhere, in any scent nowadays, sadly is a focal point of the scent too, when Creed should be focusing on the Oriental themes more.
Refusal to use vanillic or real oriental notes keeps this linear and predictable. Of course, there’s little sweetness, much greeness and woody florals to be had here, simply a highr re-release of the 1000’s of woody-freshy designers out there with a little something extra in the white floral.
More meh basically. It’s only redeeming Quality to me, that it’s a 1000x improved version of Brooklyn by Bond no9.
My rating: 5/10.
Scent Quality: 9/10.

Reminiscent of Bleu by Chanel. Quite masculine and overwhelmingly cedar with a soft note of cardamom.
Pleasant on a man.

lex1982 – 2022-06-29:

Creed Cedre Blanc is a welcome member of the Creed family, a truly fresh woody fragrance that works even better in warm weather than in cold. The opening is accented by bergamot but quickly exposes the cedar, grouped with some vetiver and just a touch of cardamom for spiciness and some floral notes (I mostly smell the geranium). The blend is good but the emphasis is overwhelming on the the cedar, especially after the bergamot fades from the opening.
Projection and longevity are a bit disappointing for the Creed price, as Cedre Blanc seems to reinforce the notion that the house is better at nailing the fresh citrus than the fresh woody or fresh floral, but it’s a pleasant creation, just not especially intriguing. Not one that I’d look to buy (even on fragrancenet) but surely something worth of trying out if a cedar-based fresh woody fragrance is up your alley, Cedre Blanc is an agreeable option for warmer weather that could probably have year-round application.

Creed makes some good fragrances, however many if not most belong to the department store league. This one starts as a soapy bergamot cologne before revealing itself and delve into the generic aquatic sportish cliché of many run-of-the-mill fragrances you find in most department stores. The fact that it uses a name with cedre in it is even more ridiculous. Buy Bleu de Chanel instead since this tries to seriously imitate it.

I second most of what Tom Ford (reviewer below) has said about this. Wonderful scent with very low sillage and duration. Thats the price you pay for natural citrus and aromatics. REALLY beautiful though. Same story with Vetiver Geranium. If this could just project more it would be a triumph.

After owning Creed Cedre Blanc for 5months while using it time-to-time the results are final; I enjoy having it. Creed has stood by their reputation continuously creating suave, refreshing, and enjoyable scents one could imagine. Personally, I have never felt the fragrance family has ever been in competition with other brands. Yet, with so many perfumes and colognes in existence today it is not difficult to resemble another creation at some point.
Creed Cedre Blanc, the first few sprays I discovered a rush of crisp bergamot, laurel, and cardamom blending with a dry burning pile of freshly shaven cedar blocks almost as if someone were preparing a campfire in the woods. The burning wood note is mild, calm and welcoming; yet fresh and woodsy. This part of the composition can last for almost 1hour, then Cedre Blanc reveals it’s jasmine, geranium, and lily floral accords. Middle notes blend very well with the top notes; However at this juncture I wished the middle notes could have lasted for an eternity because this fragrance is a work of art by it being multifaceted. Nonetheless, the grand finale quickly sets in with various subtle wood notes that remain in the background with hardly any projection. Probably 18inches at most.
Cedre Blanc has some resembling characteristics of sharing it’s drydown of Himalaya with sandalwood and [ambergris] (although not listed) along with the top note initial 1st blast of Royal Oud with the burning of the wood minus the cigarette ash note. I’m not saying Cedre Blanc smells like Himalaya and Royal Oud; I’m identifying that it has some vague similarities to them.
In conclusion, Creed Cedre Blanc is a safe anytime scent. While it may present as a mild and hardly noticeable scent after 3hours; it is truly present more so as a skin scent. If one were to purchase Cedre Blanc expecting to get by on 3-4sprays; guess again. This isn’t Aventus, Millesime 1849, or Green Irish Tweed. It is totally fine to spray 8times. The fragrance won’t become overbearing for others around after 40minutes. I did this and gotten about 8hours of excitement.
7.75 out of 10 – Good Scent

Citrus top notes in here are very well rendered and pleasing much like the majority of Creed fragrances. I have to say that the cedar and woody notes are not nearly as dry and prominent as I had anticipated but definitely a big factor and come over slightly clean more like vetiver. The opening is all about the delicate interplay of sharp citrus and that bay leaf note and a white floral/blossom type smell which is just freshens proceedings up enough, without overbearing or becoming too floral. The third factor in that opening is the greeness which is achieved through the use of Galbanum, and not to be understated, again a major factor in this scent.
The drydown is a really pleasing and lasting citrus which sits on a nice light woody base.
This is quality stuff but not exciting in anyway to me.
Lasting power is okay and I suspect might even be one of those which last longer for others than the wearer…if you get what I mean?
‘Not bad’ is my verdict.

This is lovely and almost drinkable for some reason. The naturalness and crispness of this and vetiver geranium is bar none. This fragrance is wonderful for someone who could afford it. It projects well for 2-3 hours but then gets close to carrying for at least 7 hours on my skin.
The bay leaf in here is the best I have smelled and the cedar as if a fresh log is on your lap. The supporting geranium and citrus blends with a spicy cardamom and you have a top flight scent for an executive. This is made for the jack welches and Jeff Immlets of the world it smells wonderful

This scent is very nice and light, but on my skin, it disappears. Within 10 minutes, you can hardly detect the scent. It is so faint. I would have bought the scent, if it lasted longer.

Refreshingly buoyant and yet with an underpinning of steadfast cedar, Creed’s new Cedre Blanc from their Acqua Originale collection draws one’s attention nearer. Sunny bergamot along with spicy cardamom open the fragrance on a high note. Sweetly mesmerizing laurel entices with its fragrant and spicy aroma. Its camphorous note matching well with the intensely bitter and verdant green qualities of resinous galbanum. A beautiful “watery” heart emerges, comprised of water lily, geranium, and jasmine. I really notice the water lily note here, being somewhat aquatic, a slight bit sweet, and a tad lemony. Its fluidity pairs well with the indolic jasmine, as well as the more herbal geranium scent. The base is where the scent’s name arises, as Virginia cedar is utilized. This is however not an overwhelmingly woody or cedar scent as the naming may imply, instead evoking freshness and altitude. A hint of vetiver and warm, sensuous sandalwood round out the vertical cedar note. Overall an interesting fragrance, one which is more of an artistic interpretation of a cedar forest rather than a literal one. Olivier Creed is said to have been inspired by the ethereal Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, his favorite mountain range in the world. Certainly Cedre Blanc’s aroma lives up to their majestic and pristine beauty. (153)

Very safe and pleasant daytime office scent. Smells like a cross between Creed Spice & Wood with a hint of Millesime Imperiale. High quality but not necessarily unique.

Harrier – 2022-06-29:

Very nice and interesting cologne with a good staying power. Start a little spice fresh then you have floral smooth heart and stay with a fresh woody base with cedar, vetyver and maybe sandalwood. A little fresh powdery. Remind me my creed favourite Pure White Cologne with a woody base. Very beautiful composition, an allround cologne for me. Nice work Creed !

tolstun-3 – 2022-06-29:

Very interesting fragrance. Begins with a resinous, spice opening. The top notes are very well balanced you can smell all of them. When they fade your left with a floral heart. Finally ending with a powdery, woody base.
Smells similar to erolfa with a little aventus X pure white cologne.
