Woody Fragrances

The woody family is the backbone of perfumery: sandalwood, cedar, vetiver, patchouli, and precious woods compose the territory of dry elegance — fragrances that wear like a tailored garment, present without ever shouting. In this section, you will find all the woody-dominant fragrances in the catalog, for women, men, and unisex.

How to choose a woody fragrance

Each wood has its character: sandalwood is creamy and enveloping, the softest of the family; cedar is dry and vertical, perfect for formal elegance; vetiver is earthy with a fresh nerve, the most versatile; patchouli brings dark depth, often with cocoa nuances; oud is the extreme intensity, to be approached gradually. The combinations do the rest: woods+citrus for the day, woods+spices for character, woods+amber for the evening.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are woody fragrances masculine?

They are the most versatile family overall: they are born shared, and the feminine interpretations — powdery woods, milky sandalwoods — are among the most elegant in perfumery.

What season do they prefer?

All of them: that’s their advantage. Fresh cedars and vetivers cover the summer, while sandalwoods and patchoulis warm the winter.

What is a good first woody fragrance?

A medium intensity vetiver or cedar: immediately elegant, easy to wear anywhere, and a great training ground to then recognize the nuances of the family.
