Aromatic Cedar How long does it last

[Dean Baumgartner]

Another question on the armoir for LOML.
I got some of the aromatic cedar boards that they make for lining closets, the stuff isn't more than 3/16" thick. Kind of wondering how long the scent will last or if it's related to the thickness should I look for something thicker?

Thanks,

Dean

Forever.

Did some roof work once on a church built in 1752 with cedar shingles....we could still smell the cedar 200+ years later.

Smell deminishes after a while.....few years maybe....but sand in spot with some 320 or 400 grit sandpaper and it all comes back. Just don't sand much. So, once every several years and it will out last you. ;) :D

Thanks Guys,
You've put my mind at ease. I'll go ahead and use what I've got.
