Amber Oud Gold Edition
sweet tropical fruit wrapped in warm vanilla and woodsy amber
Fresh woody perfumes pair a clean, bright opening of citrus, herbs or sea air with dry woods such as cedar, cypress and vetiver. A curated set of 3,000+ perfumes on Scendira carry both fresh and woody accords, from about $6 to $1,006.
Fresh notes are the light, airy ones, such as citrus, green leaves and sea air, and woody notes are the dry, grounded ones, such as cedar, cypress and vetiver. Dior Escale a Portofino shows the idea: citron, bergamot and petitgrain at the top, then orange blossom and juniper, over cypress, white musk and cedar.
Perfumes people discuss in the communities Scendira tracks include Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Acqua, Dior Escale a Portofino and Dior Homme 2020. Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Acqua opens on sea breeze, juniper and cypress.
Suits: People who like a crisp, clean opening over dry wood. Skip if: you want a sweet or heavy perfume.
Fresh Woody Perfumes sits between the fresh perfumes and woody perfumes families, and cedarwood perfumes or vetiver perfumes are close relatives.
