314 Cedro
Designed for fragrance enthusiasts who prefer structured citrus over simple cologne accords, LabSolue 314 Cedro brings an artisanal Italian edge to warm-weather wear. The composition balances zesty Italian cedrat against a raw leather base, skipping the typical sugary dry-down found in mass-market summer scents. Yellow mandarin and neroli keep the opening vibrant for outdoor lunches, weekend walks, and daytime office settings, while amber adds soft warmth near the skin. It targets wearers seeking a crisp unisex fragrance that maintains character through hot humid afternoons without fading into generic clean musk.

Longevity ranges between five and seven hours on skin, while sillage remains moderate at arm's length for the first ninety minutes. The citrus top notes evaporate quickly in dry heat, but the underlying amber and leather base lingers quietly as an intimate skin scent.

LabSolue 314 Cedro centers on a dry citrus-leather structure. Crisp Italian cedrat and yellow mandarin open with bright rind bitterness, followed by a clean heart of neroli. The dry-down relies on amber and supple leather, creating a textured contrast between sunlit citrus and warm, ground-level depth.
Main Accords
5 MAPPEDThe dominant citrus accord hits with sharp acidity before merging into the resinous warmth of amber. Leather provides a dry, structural frame rather than a heavy animalic kick, allowing the neroli floral notes to breathe without turning powdery or sweet.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“LabSolue 314 Cedro Editorial Review: Citrus Friction Over Soft Leather”
The first spray of LabSolue 314 Cedro delivers a brisk shock of tart Italian cedrat skin and zesty yellow mandarin. Instead of presenting a sweet or sugary citrus accord, perfumer Yann Vasnier preserves the authentic bitterness of natural citrus rind. The opening feels airy and sunlit on skin, carrying a slight green snap that immediately refreshes your senses on a warm morning. It sets an upbeat tone without relying on synthetic aquatic molecules.
As the initial citrus wave softens after fifteen minutes, neroli emerges in the heart to bridge the top notes with the base. The white floral aspect stays remarkably restrained, avoiding heavy soapiness while contributing a dry, breezy herbal texture. As the hours pass, warm amber and supple leather gradually rise to the surface, transforming the brisk citrus opening into a quiet, grounded skin scent that hugs close to your pulse points.
On warm skin, the friction between bright citrus oils and dry leather creates an intriguing structural contrast. The leather note here leans clean and refined, avoiding harsh smoky, tarry, or gasoline undertones. Meanwhile, the amber base softens the lower edges, preventing the bitter cedrat from becoming astringent or screechy as the scent settles into its third hour of wear.
Performance aligns closely with high-end niche citrus compositions. Expect roughly five to seven hours of total longevity on skin, with the first ninety minutes projecting within arm's length before receding into a subtle personal bubble. It shines brightest during warm spring days and hot summer afternoons, making it ideal for outdoor lunches, office environments, or casual weekend strolls.
LabSolue 314 Cedro appeals to enthusiasts who enjoy unisex fragrances with character beyond standard summer cologne templates. If you love Mediterranean citrus but want the grounding weight of light leather and amber, this composition fits your style nicely. It stays perfectly balanced between masculine leather and feminine floral brightness, making it easy for anyone to wear confidently.
While 314 Cedro will not satisfy buyers seeking room-filling projection or sugary warmth, it delivers an impressive study in citrus contrast. The combination of bitter cedrat rind, clean neroli, and dry leather feels thoughtful from spray to dry-down. We recommend testing a sample first if you dislike bitter citrus, but it merits a full bottle for anyone building a refined warm-weather wardrobe.
