What does Acqua Wood smell like?

It opens bright with lemon leaf and bergamot, while black pepper adds a light sharpness. The heart brings a floral, creamy softness through lavender, clary sage, labdanum and Ambrox. In the base, gaiac wood, cedarwood, sandalwood and musk move it toward a woody, slightly sweet finish, with aquatic and green touches keeping it fresh.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it makes itself known up close without filling a room. It is described as a men's scent, and its fresh, woody build suits everyday wear. Initio Rehab and Montagne Parfums Eden have a close profile.
