What does Bvlgari Man Wood Essence (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer not far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office get the most votes, and half of voters find it masculine.

Coriander and citrus zest give the opening a bright, lightly spicy start. In the heart, cypress and gaiac wood bring a green, woody feel. Virginia cedar wood and Siam benzoin absolute sweeten and soften the base. Baldessarini Secret Mission and Parfums de Marly Percival have a close profile.
