CreamyWhat does Sequoia Wood smell like?
At the start, neroli and palmarosa give a citrusy, floral and fresh brightness. In the heart, sequoia wood comes forward and the scent settles onto a woody footing. In the base, cedar, patchouli and white musk leave an earthy, creamy and faintly resinous warmth, while sweet and spicy touches soften the wood.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without overwhelming. It reads as unisex, suiting men and women alike. Those who like neroli-led profiles may also look at Boucheron Néroli d'Ispahan and Montale Holy Neroli.
