What does Pink Wood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated as good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind, and it is chosen mostly for evenings, leisure time and nights out. Voters read it as somewhat more feminine, though a fair number call it masculine.

Taken as a whole, it is a floral, fruity and sweet rose set on a woody base, warmed by spicy, resinous touches. Sandalwood and oak wood give it body, patchouli, cistus and labdanum add depth, and geranium supports the floral side. A faint animal edge stays behind the oud. Dior Oud Ispahan and Khalis Oud Malaki have a close profile.
