What Reddit owners say
3/5 ProjectionSynthetic / harsh“Khadlaj shiyaaka snow. Blind bought it because the majority seems to recommend it plus it's cheap, but I cannot stand the scent, from opening till dry down. I don't know if it's the babywipes scent, the musk, or maybe a bad batch? Mancera cedrat boise. There is a synthetic chemical something mixed with strong leather note that makes the smell unpleasant and nauseating. And it being a beast mode makes it worse.”
4/5“Cedrat Boise is good, red tobacco and red tobacco intense are great. Cedrat Boise is one of the few fragrances I've gotten multiple compliments on. I'd say get some decants and try them.”
4/5 Headaches“I enjoy French Riviera and Cinque Terre. I also have a 10ml or Cedrat Boise because I do like it but don't reach for it enough. The last time I wore it, I think I went a little overboard with sprays and it gave me a headache.”
4/5 HeadachesNight out“I have lots migraine problems with perfume , but this one no , i also have xerjoff naxos -mancera cedrat boise and jazz club replica , all of them good in my opinion”
4/5 UniqueSummer“Mine too, she says it smells like a lemon. But i like it, i just wear something different when i‘m with her. Funny thing is that i got the most random compliments from strangers when i had Cedrat Boise on. Btw i like Cedrat Boise even more during winter than during summer.”

4/5 Value“Do you get a “ash tray” smell from cedrat boise? I found it for a really good price so I might take the risk and blind buy it and then just try decants of a few others”
5/5“With that said, I wear Cedrat Boise the most of all my Manceras for sure. It's legitimately fantastic.”
2/5“I mean, it doesnt smell like cough syrup, so... one thing I see on this site all the time is people wearing something once and deciding they dont like it, its bad, etc. You already bought it, I'd suggest a minimum of 3 wears before you completely write it off. I didnt like Cedrat Boise or 40 knots much when I got them, but after a few wears your nose gets more accustomed to the scent profile.”
2/5“I would say cedrat Boise or explorer! I would also check out intense cedrat Boise, it consistently generates legitimate compliments from women… which is not why I wear fragrances but, let's be real, helps the case for wearing it lol. Explorer is a phenomenal safer take on citrus than cedrat Boise, only issue is explorer turns a little sour on some peoples' skins. Either way, one of those two beat the pants off everything else on your list!”
4/5“Cedrat Boise is good too but do NOT blind buy it”
2/5 Synthetic / harsh“I have got Hawas 2023, Beau de jour and cedrat boise have kept them for maceration for a month...what I can say is that smell has changed but still they feel too harsh to me except cedrat boise it is not that harsh but can't really get any other note than that of citrus. So just wanted to know if you had the same experience did you got the same harshness and tbh all 3 have same base note is what I feel.”
4/5“cedrat boise by mancera seems really good, i tried out a mancera perfume a couple years ago so it seems promising”
