Aromatic Cedar is a domestic hardwood and this tree grows best in the South. As the name suggests, Aromatic Cedar has a strong cedar smell, which is why it is often used for the lining of closets and chests. Since it is a slow-growing species, this wood tends to have knots and a small diameter. Carvers and whittlers have highlighted that this wood is soft and easy to work with.
