What does Magnetic Wood smell like?

The top is bright and green, with bergamot, osmanthus and green mandarin orange. At the heart, narcissus, iris and mimosa bring a powdery, creamy softness, while a spicy touch stays in the background. The base of gaiac wood, cedar and sandalwood gathers it all onto a dry, woody ground.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close without overwhelming the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with daily and leisure wear leading and business and evening also getting votes. Voters tend to read it as feminine and modern. Atelier Vesper Elea and Mizensir Bois Iridescent have a close profile.
