What does Roman Wood smell like?
It opens with cypress, bergamot, sage and rosemary, giving a green, citrusy freshness. In the heart, moss, stone pine and cedarwood build a woody core, and the base of pine absolute, vanilla and amber adds a resinous warmth with a touch of sweetness.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, office and leisure are favoured about equally. Most votes call it masculine or classic. Perfumes with a close profile include Proraso Cypress & Vetyver and David Beckham Botanical Resin.
