Woody

Woody fragrances are built on cedar, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli and sometimes oud. They feel dry, warm and grounded, and they usually last longer than fresh scents. Ours range from easy everyday woods like Sospiro Basso to darker ones like Francesca Bianchi Sticky Fingers and Byredo Mumbai Noise.
