Review on Revitalize Your Cedar Wood: Giles and Kendall Cedar Oil - Restores Original Aroma, 8 oz by Jennifer Salazar

I almost gave this product two stars in my review. I've been a carpenter since high school and I love cedar, so I was a little confused and very confused when I opened this bottle. I didn't smell bad, let's just say, but I didn't smell like cedar. It had a strong earthy tone with just hints of cedar. I was very disappointed. I love the smell of cedar and it wasn't. I decided to give it a try and rubbed it on a 4" x 4" piece of pine wood and left it in place. The next day, the rag still smelled, well, not like cedar, and the board was earthy, too. Today the rag smelled the same, but the pine board smelled like cedar! My wife laughed at me because I kept sniffing the pine board :) I honestly don't know if the instructions say to apply it and give it a day or two because - full disclosure - I haven't read any other material It was safe to use but I found that when applied to wood a day or so later it definitely had that wonderful cedar smell. Very happy :)
