Comme des Garçons Wonderwood is a fresh, green scent with a spicy, woody and resinous core, and it reads clearly masculine.

What does Wonderwood smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays with you through the day without filling the room. Most voters pick autumn, followed by winter and spring, with summer well behind. Leisure, evening, daily and business wear all draw similar support.

It opens with nutmeg, Somalian frankincense, Madagascan pepper and bergamot, a spicy and fresh start. In the heart, cashmeran, cedarwood and gaiac wood build a woody body, with caraway keeping the spice going. The base of sandalwood, oud and vetiver turns earthy and smoky. L'Occitane en Provence Eau de Vetyver and Jul et Mad Vetiver Cuir have a close profile.
