What does Green Wood smell like?
It opens with santolina and lemon, a citrus freshness met by the spice of Bourbon pepper. In the heart, cedarwood and vetiver dominate while resinous notes add warmth. The base of musk, cypriol and ambrox dries down keeping its green, earthy side, with a slightly synthetic edge.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, and it is worn mainly for daytime, leisure and work, less so in the evening. It reads masculine and modern. Fragonard Vétiver and Truefitt & Hill Apsley have a close profile.
