A summery forest scent

I came across this fragrance by chance in Cologne in the fragrance house 4711. I know the standard fragrance 4711 from my childhood, have seen it here and there with relatives in the bathroom, and happened to pass by the fragrance house by chance and was interested and surprised by such a beautiful presentation. Definitely worth a visit.
At this point, please look it up, I noticed for the first time that there are other fragrances produced here besides the standard 4711.
I tried out various scents here, had two candidates on the shortlist afterwards and then decided to go for Wakening Woods of Scandinavia. This scent triggered in me the association of spring/summer and especially the association of a walk in the forest after a summer rain. Unfortunately, I can't describe it better than that.
I already own a few other fragrances now and am therefore very surprised that this fragrance is quite affordable in a 170 ml bottling, smells very good, lasts very long and other people also perceive the scent and so far this has been consistently positive.
Compared to other fragrances, I think that this fragrance does not change greatly over time but, compared to other fragrances, smells very consistently for hours. But I don't want to interpret this in a negative way, for an everyday scent it is rather positive.
I like to wear this fragrance in the office, but 2-3 sprayers are definitely enough. If I wear more of the fragrance, I perceive a synthetic note more strongly, which disturbs me a little over time. But 2-3 sprayers are ideal for me
I am looking forward to my next visit to the fragrance house in Cologne, because I still have 1-2 interesting fragrances in my head there. Maybe I will buy a very small bottling of the standard 4711 for nostalgic reasons.
