What does The Woods Green Ivy smell like?

It opens with the cool bite of galbanum, green apple, coriander and mint. In the heart, clove, nutmeg and red pepper bring spice, while violet and magnolia soften it with a gentle floral touch. The base settles into a woody, earthy footing of cedarwood, sandalwood and leather, warmed by amber, patchouli and musk.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, then summer, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most common settings. Voters lean towards a masculine reading, though it is classed as unisex. Maya Njie Nordic Cedar and Karakash Silver Breath have a close profile.
