## Why extrait de parfum

Extrait de parfum is the most concentrated form a fragrance can take. With far more perfume oil and less alcohol than an eau de parfum, Cèdre Nocturne unfolds slowly, settles close to the skin after the first hour and keeps evolving well into the night.

## How it wears

Moderate projection for the first two hours, then an intimate, resinous drydown that stays within arm's length. Best in the evening and in cold weather, when cedar reads sharpest. Two to three sprays to the neck and chest is enough.

## Who it's for

For the man who wants a woody cologne that reads as quiet confidence: close, resinous and refined after dark. Someone who would rather be noticed at arm's length than across the room.

## Crafted slowly

Each batch rests through a [4–6 week maceration](https://grovenoir.com/the-craft/) before it is filled into a heavy glass flacon and closed with a solid walnut cap.

## Cèdre Nocturne, answered

### How long does Cèdre Nocturne last?

As an extrait de parfum it typically lasts 10 hours or more on skin, and longer on fabric. Longevity varies with skin type and climate.

### How many sprays should I use?

Two to three: one at the neck, one or two on the chest. Extrait is concentrated, so less goes further.

### Can I try it before opening a full bottle?

Yes. Every bottle ships with a complimentary sample, so you can test it on skin first and return the bottle unopened if it isn't for you.

### Is it safe to spray on clothes?

Test on a hidden area first. Amber-tinted extraits can mark pale fabrics.

### Where do you ship and how fast?

Orders ship within one business day and arrive in two to five business days within the US. See [shipping](https://grovenoir.com/shipping/).
