Fantastic fragrance, top-tier ingredients. The blend of woods and spices is elegant. It lasts about five hours; while the initial projection is short, I forgive it because I simply love the scent.
Be warned: this is an intensely woody fragrance that can even make you feel nauseous. If you’re not a fan of woods, don’t even bother smelling it. It’s dry, rough, saffron-infused wood with no evolution, very invasive on the nose. I don’t like it because the woods overpower every other detail, even making the saffron smell more intense and unpleasant.
Woody Mood by Olfactive Studio. It’s good, but not unique; it bears a strong resemblance to the legendary Encre Noire or Lalique’s Extreme. It has herbal nuances, pine-like wood, and very well-crafted smoky incense that creates a lovely smoky sensation. Ideal for autumn afternoons, coffee breaks, or quiet cold nights. It performs well, but there are excellent Western or Oriental options today without spending much, such as Emir’s Smokey Leather or Encre Noire. It’s good but pricey for my taste. Scent: 9.0, Projection: 2h, Longevity: 8h. Recommended if you don’t already own those others.
Woody Mood. A fragrance that captivates you from the first contact. The wood delivers on its promise. It starts slightly sweet before giving way to cedar, the star of the show. It’s not complex but has depth and nuances. I was particularly taken by the incense, very well crafted, sitting in the background yet present. Upon learning the perfumer is Bertrand Duchaufour (creator of Avignon), I understood it better. It’s uncomplicated, kind, easy to wear, round, and well-made. It doesn’t smell like anything else; it leans masculine but could look great on a woman too. Once I finish my vial of Pafory Woody Mood, it will go on my wishlist. It’s a must-try for wood lovers.
Extraordinary fragrance and totally woody. It’s dry wood with a delicious sweet touch. The opening doesn’t do justice to the dry-down: it starts dry, but over time it’s like a chrysalis turning into a butterfly. Then, a lot of incense emerges, reminding me of the smell of tapers or large candles during Holy Week processions in Spain, with an incredible sweetness.
