The take

What works

  • Realistic cedar-juniper accord that holds character through drydown
  • Fresh-woody profile genuinely office-friendly
  • Safe blind-buy for cedar fans without being boring

Trade-offs

  • Soft projection — doesn't fill a room
  • Lacks 'wow' — pleasant but not distinctive
