What does Refined Woods smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close and suits the office as well as leisure time. Most voters pick fall, then spring, while summer gets the fewest votes. It reads as masculine and modern.
The top of clary sage, cardamom and citron keeps the opening fresh and mildly spicy. In the heart, geranium, iris and lavender add a floral, powdery and green softness. Cedarwood and vetiver build the woody frame underneath, and tonka bean sweetens it.
