Super What?
“Small is big for the smaller”
- Mehmet Murat ildan
Is it a perfume? Is it a plane? No, it's Byredo's Super Cedar… sorry, I couldn't resist.
Now, what do you want me to tell you about this "perfume"? I will start with the positives:
Pleasant smell? Check
Funny minimal packaging? Check
Interesting name? More or less Check.
And that's it, because the Super Cedar "kryptonites" are many and strong. Let's start with originality. It smells too much like MS Molecule 01, which only means one of two things, either I have my nose totally wrecked or it's full of Iso E super.
Now, let's talk about performance. Time is the enemy of all linear fragrances, but this one in me is completely "destroyed" in a blink of an eye. 30 minutes after application and the initial, strong, tall cedar trunk turns into a musky toothpick, with notes of vetiver… skin scent is his middle name.
Finally, the price. 110 euros for 50 ml of Iso E super? If EM 01 price is already an outrage, this one is even more “pornographic”. This "super thingy" is nothing more than a little thing pretending that it another thing completely.
