cedar
Moth-repelling lumber
Cedar is a large evergreen conifer with aromatic, durable wood prized for construction, furniture, and storage.
Cedar chests protect woolens from moths; cedar shingles weather to silvery gray.
The distinctive scent comes from natural oils that resist rot and repel insects: The closet smelled of cedar.
Several unrelated trees share the name, including the cedars of Lebanon mentioned in biblical texts.
