Never attach wood directly to concrete regardless of whether or not you think it is dry or not. You need to build a stud wall away from the concrete to insure air circulation or use rigid foam as a thermal break between the concrete and a stud wall. You can also fur out the concrete wall, insulate, and then install the cedar. Use only eastern red cedar. You should have an insulated floor as well as weather stripping around the door. The effectiveness of the cedar closet is keeping moisture out and keeping the cedar aroma in.

Hi Olga!
I love the smell of cedar, especially in a closet. Take a look at this information. Hopefully it is helpful to you.
