Cedrat

It is a fragrance built around this special fruit called cedrat; it is close to bergamot, lemon and orange. ❋ Marina Geigert (2007)

I mixed the cedrat oil with a spicy note: pepper, which enhances the freshness. ❋ Marina Geigert (2007)

Other petitgrain essential oils are available in far lesser quantities, such as: petitgrain lemon, petitgrain combarva from the kaffir lime tree and petitgrain cedrat. ❋ Ayala Sender (2007)

However, on lesser scales, other petitgrains are also produced, which have a unique aroma: petitgrain lemon, petitgrain cedrat (citron) and petitgrain combarva (kaffir lime). ❋ Ayala Sender (2007)

The present oil of cedar (ol cedrat of commerce) cannot be intended, as that is made from the citron, and being merely an essential oil can have little of the antiseptic or corrosive qualities imputed to the ancient oil of cedars. ❋ Montagu Browne (N/A)

Citron, Citrus limonum, supposed by some Rabbis to be intended in the text of Lev., xxiii, 40; "boughs of hadar", used regularly in the service of the synagogue and hardly distinguishable from cedrat. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

Health has often been restored when life and death trembled in the balance, by the mere sprinkling of essence of cedrat in a sick chamber. ❋ George William Septimus Piesse (1851)

What is called extract of cedrat is made by dissolving two ounces of the above essential oil of citron in one pint of spirits, to which some perfumers add half an ounce of bergamot. ❋ George William Septimus Piesse (1851)

For very fine cologne water, mix together in a new phial oil of lemon, two drachms; oil of bergamot, two drachms; oil of lavender, two drachms; oil of cedrat, one drachm; tincture of benzoin, three drachms; neroli, ten drops; ambergris, ten drops; attar of roses, two drops. ❋ Eliza Leslie (1822)

Detroit Review of Medicine and Pharmacy for July, 1876. gives a report of a case of poisoning through an overdose of oil of red cedar (oleum juniper virginianae) which supports my theory as to there being extracted an oil from the Lebanon (or other) cedars partaking of the nature of turpentine and totally distinct from ol cedrat.] ❋ Montagu Browne (N/A)
