Penhaligon's Halfeti Cedar (2020, perfumer Christian Provenzano) is a woody-spicy unisex flanker to the original 2015 Halfeti, and is a genuinely distinct composition — boozy rum, saffron, peach and cardamom up top over a heart of Virginia cedar, dried fruits, cinnamon, mineral notes and immortelle, drying down to Atlas cedar, tonka, vanilla, labdanum and patchouli. Because it is a different scent from the base Halfeti (which has far more clones), its dupe field is narrow, but there is one clearly established, purpose-made clone: Fragrance World's 'Historic Cedar', which reproduces the exact note pyramid and is widely stocked and repeatedly described by the community as a faithful, unbeatable-for-the-price alternative (with the caveat that some find it leans sweeter and more fruit-forward than the original's woodier balance). The UK oil/dupe house Perfume Parlour also markets a dedicated Halfeti Cedar impression ('Rumkale Pine 0030'). Consensus here rests on a small number of dedicated clone SKUs and retailer/Fragrantica corroboration rather than a large multi-thread Reddit discussion, and care should be taken not to conflate Halfeti Cedar dupes (e.g. Dua's 'Village of Karaotlak') that actually target the original 2015 Halfeti instead.
