Cèdre & Oranger opens with fleeting orange, bergamot and a blast of cardamom. The citrus notes are minor players in this perfume. After about 15 minutes, it relaxes into a beautiful blend of vetiver, pine, cedar and a touch of musk. It is well worth the wait.
Cèdre & Oranger is one of the most truly unisex aromatics I’ve experienced. It does remind me of a man’s skin about 45 minutes after a shower, when just a trace of scent remains. (I love that smell.) It remains skin close from beginning to end. I think it would be a good choice for a man wanting an easy perfume day (as a break from the heavy-hitters), or as a low-key out-to-dinner scent when you want to be considerate of your dinner companions. It would also be a good choice for a woman wanting a soft woody aromatic, as it is not overly pungent or herbal.
Edit: I’ve sprayed about 7 sprays now for review purposes, and this does project after all. It is subtle, but I can detect a scent cloud around me.

Nice composition. My wife loves it.

It’s a very addictive fragrance. I keep craving it. Soft but very high impact

Rural Florida has a good amount of pine scrub, open grassy fields, and orange groves. During spring, everything is very lush, and the high heat and humidity is mostly absent. This is what Cedre & Oranger smells like (and it manages to replicate it in a very realistic fashion as well). I can smell the green-citrus of orange groves; verdant and summery grass; musky, woody, minty pine scrub.
Despite the boring name, this unisex (not masculine as marketed) scent it actually a very nice buy that brings Floridian springtime to your doorstep. Good, so that I kept going back to sniff myself. Just my luck- I love how it smells freshly sprayed, but it gives me a headache when I wear it too long (though I think that might be more of a “me” thing, since that’s happened more often with perfumes now). Oh well.

Its not the most amazing but it is very good indeed, stars with a fresh orange and cedar notes but the citrus of the orange fades away fast, but good quality base notes on this fragrance, I think is unisex, no problem at all who has it on…..

Good but i think they stopped short with this.
Light,good summer choice.
If i had a complaint it would be poor longevity.But I accept this because the ingredients are natural and citrus is always short lived anyway .

A light unisex fragrance for cedar lovers. It’s quite simple: you get a cedar in the begininning – and the same clean note in two hours. Good for summer and for a warm skin.
I’m used to carry small pieces of red cedar’s (Juniperus virginiana) bark, just for aromatherapy. Maybe it’s worth to search for a pure essence / oil, as it’s usually the fragrance of pure materials which catches our noses, while choosing the perfume.

Took me a while to realise Cedre & Oranger was originally created for men. It’s this refreshing green paradise on my skin, a mix of forest scents with a hint of citrus. It is just perfect. I love the smell of freshly cut grass, leaf buds in springtime, pine trees, cedar, etc… So no wonder I’m drawn to Cedre & Oranger. I did feel that it was less girly than the rest of my collection, but actually would have never guessed it was for men until I saw the title here on Fragrantica.

A typical citrus masculine cologne scent, but a notch above the average male frags out there. Citrusy, lightly woody with that aftershave/aquatic note. Would have thought it’s a greenish-blue scent.

great scent ! so sad this perfume is for a limited time :/

I know it’s for men, I couldn’t resist testing it! I must say I quite enjoy this one. One of the better 2013 creations by L’Occitane.
I am sure I would have loved it in the summer – it’s got a cooling effect. It must be the pine and cardamon that give this cedar fragrance a minty vibe. It’s Tam Dao’s cousin from far north 😉
