As summer arrives, finding the perfect fragrance to complement the warm weather becomes a top priority. While Orange Sanguine by Atelier Cologne is a well-known summer favorite, there’s another lesser-known citrus fragrance worth trying—Cedrat Enivrant.
If Orange Sanguine evokes the sensation of squeezing a fresh orange under a shady tree, with juice bursting out in all directions, then Cedrat Enivrant conjures the image of slicing open a ripe lemon with a clean knife, releasing a crisp and orderly lemon scent.
Cedrat Enivrant
- Top Notes: Citron, Lime, Bergamot
- Middle Notes: Mint, Basil, Juniper Berry
- Base Notes: Tonka Bean, Vetiver, Elemi Resin
Cedrat Enivrant opens with the refreshing scent of freshly cut lemons, with a cool, tart aroma. The middle notes introduce a clean, soap-free freshness reminiscent of lemon-scented body wash, with the citrus fragrance lingering throughout. Though the scent is relatively simple, it is precisely this straightforwardness that evokes summer memories. The fragrance ends with a pure fruit aroma, lasting up to nine hours, ensuring that this scent stands out from the crowd.
A spritz of this fragrance on a sweltering summer afternoon can instantly clear a foggy mind, as if you’re suddenly immersed in a chilled glass of lemon honey water, finding a moment of comfort and coolness under the blazing sun.
Scents often evoke strong imagery, and this fragrance is no exception. While perfect for daily wear, its simple lemon notes also suggest other scenes: the crushed mint leaves and lime slices in a mojito, the dark, crystalline liquid of iced lemon tea, or holding hands while weaving through crowds to attend a concert, with a band on stage singing, “We can never be defeated, we must always be happy.”
