WoodyWhat does Woods/Icelandic smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the small number of votes makes these ratings only a rough guide. It leans neither masculine nor feminine.
The top notes are myrtle, ginger, blackcurrant and bergamot, giving a citrusy, green freshness with a spicy edge from the ginger. The heart of gaiac wood, hazelnut, frankincense and violet turns woody, lightly sweet and creamy. The base of ambergris, cedarwood and moss leaves a smoky, woody trail.
