Wood
Description
Wood is a complex and versatile fragrance note derived from various tree species. It encompasses a range of scents from light and airy cedar to rich and deep sandalwood. The extraction process often involves steam distillation of wood chips or bark, resulting in essential oils that capture the essence of the forest.
How it feels
Wood notes evoke feelings of grounding, stability, and connection to nature. They can be comforting and reassuring, making them ideal for both casual daytime wear and elegant evening fragrances. Wood-based scents are particularly well-suited for autumn and winter, but lighter wood notes can be refreshing in spring and summer as well.
Use in perfumery
In perfumery, wood notes are typically used as base notes, providing depth and longevity to fragrances. They are often paired with spicy, floral, or citrus notes to create complex and balanced scents. Wood notes are particularly prevalent in oriental, chypre, and fougère fragrance families, adding warmth and sophistication.
