wood

The PA and Liberty Guaiacwood both have that bacon-does-grow-on-trees smell. Does anyone have a resource that ships to the US (amounts under $200)? Warmly CS

I am looking to create a deep, dry woodsy base for a fragrance. I am having trouble finding a combination of a fixative and a wood that doesn't end up just a bit too sweet. I have the following ingredients: Acetal (Natural) Acetophenone (Phenyl methyl ketone) Adoxal (Givaudan) Aldehyde C-10...

Hoping to get some info/thoughts/leads on this. In a nutshell, I'm hoping to find a guaiac that represents what one might burn as palo santo. Now, I know that it might be possible to achieve via blending some smokey and incense notes into an accord but i'm wondering if anything exists that...

Hello everyone, After some research with my personal taste, I've come with 2 fragrances that interest me the most (21, M) - Azzaro - Wanted By Night - JPG - Ultra Male / Afnan 9pm I'm looking for something sweet/woody/vanilla and maybe candy like scent, something for...

I've been meaning to expand the "Woody" section of my Perfumers Organ- I have yet to try Hinoki, can anyone attest to their fondness for it? I see it everywhere nowadays- A lot of wood notes for me have the distinct smell of Cat Urine (like spruce & pine), so I'm always wary of trying new woods...

Hello! Very happy to have just joined and looking forward to sharing favorites. Currently I am using Timbuktu by L'Artisan (notes: green mango, pink pepper berries, cardamom, karo karounde flower, smokey incense of papyrus wood, patchouli, myrrh, vetiver) and Vanille Exquisite by Annick Goutal...

Fall is coming up and I'd like to find something woody and spicy...possibly with a hint of smoke. Not really looking for anything just woody, as I already own Sycomore which is my current favorite. I love Slumberhouse frags, however, they're missing some spice. Please throw some suggestions my...

Hello everyone ! Well, after reading you guys religiously for over 3 months (and discovering some great fragrances in the process) I've decided to take the next step and write my first post :-) I am on my ever-searching quest for the perfect perfume for me, if that's possible. My favorite...

First off I would like to thank all of the basenote veterans and outstanding YouTube reviewers for guiding me in the right direction to what my nose prefers. With that Bieng said, I find that I like dark foreboding fragrances the most that include musk, leather, woods, (Vetiver, Oud) and cumin...

I'm a sucker for incense and wood notes, and right now I have the incense covered with CdG Jaisalmer and Kyoto. Now I'm interested in a evocative wood scent a bit on the drier side (a bit of sweetness tucked in a corner is okay, but too much gets cloying to me). What should I be paying attention...

Hello, I hope I am posting this in the right place. I choose Just Starting Out, because I am generally still new to Agarwood, and am learning about it's many facets. I am also new to this site, and this will be my first post. I recently purchased a $180 dollar bottle of proportedly...

Hello all, been trolling the forum and site for quite a while now, and finally decided to register and post for once. So I was looking at reviews and notes in both Burberry London for men and the much less known Tommy Bahama for men. I often do blind buys because I've never really smelled a...

Which fragrance best conjures up the idea of "Forest" for you and what type of forest is conjured? I'm curious about what the idea means to other members. Outdoorsy scents are often associated with men's fragrances, but I'm not limiting this inquiry to the men's fragrance discussion, as...

Greetings gentleman ! I need a new bottle of Cologne/edt, as I'm down to my last bit of Polo Green. I'd like to find something in spice with oriental wood and vanilla undertones. Very slightly gourmand would be OK. For reference, I don't care for the powdery nature of Old Spice. Creamy would be...

There have been a good number made, many have been great frags in their own right but very specific scent profiles. So let's have your top of the Creed private collections that have been made, Royal Exclusives count as well. 1. Vintage Tabarome: my all time favorite private collection they have...

The design house of the late Alexander McQueen (not unlike Vivienne Westwood) was very interested in the use of images of European aristocrats and royalty. For much of history of the Western world, fashion and taste was dictated by aristocrats and also by popular stage performers, both male and...

It would be fair to say that I have been waiting for this one all year since I first heard whispers of it's development back in January - actually it may have been earlier, thinking about it. I was then privy to three early versions of the fragrance being developed by Betrand Duchaufour, each...
