Woody fragrances don't demand attention — they just hold it, quietly, for hours. The right woody perfume for men or women becomes a second skin over time: familiar, comfortable, entirely yours.

FAQs

What woods are typically used in perfume?

Sandalwood, cedarwood, vetiver and patchouli are the most common each brings a different character: sandalwood is creamy and soft, cedar is dry and sharp, vetiver is smoky-earthy, and patchouli reads dark and slightly sweet.

Do woody perfumes work for both men and women?

Yes woody is one of the more naturally unisex fragrance families, since the notes themselves don't carry strong gendered associations the way, say, classic florals or gourmands can; several products in this edit (Sama, Asir L'Qalb) are marketed unisex for that reason.
