Infact, from 
http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2009:337:0011:01:EN:HTML

    "Exceptions [...] the technical storage or access is strictly
necessary for the legitimate purpose of enabling the use of a specific
service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user."

I infer from that session cookies are exempt.

    "the user’s consent to processing may be expressed by using the
appropriate settings of a browser or other application."

So if a user has cookies enabled, a website can most likely assume the
user agrees.

Bear in mind this cookie directive is primarily focussed on
advertising and underhand tracking tactics. Even so, if the above
suggestions are incorrect or you just want to be sure - all you need
is simply ask the user if they agree for your site to store cookies on
their computer, and save a 1 in the "they agree to use cookies" field
in your users table when they register/login so that you can act
appropriately.
