Botanical misconception: Although called cedar in perfumery, this tree has no botanical relation to true cedars (Cedrus), which belong to the pine family (Pinaceae).
In ancient Egypt and Rome, the wood of this tree was used to build temples and sacred objects due to its durability and subtle scent.
Its aroma is drier and less sweet than that of true cedar, making it ideal for adding depth to fragrance compositions without overpowering them.
