Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Odin New York 01 Sunda / 01 Nomad is a fresh, citrusy and woody unisex scent that opens with Himalayan cedar leaf, bergamot and juniper berry. Voters lean towards autumn and spring, with summer and winter not far behind. It sits close to leisure, daily wear and the office. Longevity and sillage are moderate, and voters split almost evenly between calling it feminine and masculine. It opens with cedar leaf, bergamot and juniper in a fresh, citrusy way. In the heart, palmarosa, heliotrope and black pepper add a floral, spicy softness. It settles into a powdery, creamy, lightly sweet wood of grey musk, Indian sandalwood and tonka bean. Zara Nude Bouquet and Amouage Sunshine Man have a close profile.

03 Century

Odin New York · 2009

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Odin New York 03 Century is a woody, sweet-spicy unisex scent that leans towards fall and winter days. Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter for it, with spring a distant third. It is worn for evenings and nights out as readily as for daily and office wear, and voters read it as somewhat more masculine, though a sizeable share call it feminine. The top has horse mint, cypress and silver birch, the heart is vetiver, patchouli and myrrh, and the base holds amber, oakmoss and black musk. The result is a powdery, resinous, earthy wood with a smoky, spicy thread, softened by sweetness. Heeley Eau Sacrée and Cerruti 1881 Signature have a close profile.

06 Amanu

7.3

Odin New York · 2011

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Odin New York 06 Amanu is a unisex perfume that links the green, citrusy opening of galbanum, blood orange and mastic to a floral-woody heart of cedar leaf and jasmine sambac. Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close rather than leaving a heavy trail. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. It suits daily wear, leisure and the office in equal measure. Voters lean slightly masculine, though a sizeable group finds it feminine. The opening pairs the sharp green of galbanum with the fruity freshness of blood orange, while mastic adds a resinous backdrop. In the heart, cedar leaf turns the green toward wood, and jasmine sambac and magnolia add soft floral notes. The base of moss, musk and amberwood settles into an earthy, warm woodiness.

Sanrovia

Blocki · 2018

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Blocki Sanrovia is a fresh, citrusy unisex fragrance that keeps a balance between a floral heart and a woody, earthy base. Bergamot, Italian lemon, Californian lemon and Valencia orange open bright and crisp. In the heart, jasmine, rose, geranium and lavender add a soft floral note with a slightly spicy edge. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, cedar and labdanum grounds it in a woody, earthy footing, while the sweet accord rounds off the transition. Cacharel Cacharel pour L'Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Penhaligon's Endymion have a close profile.
