The Slightly Different Fresh Scent

HWOWW is the slightly different fresh scent....
No bergamot, no grapefruit or similar notes in the fragrance pyramid.
And yet HWOWW is incredibly fresh.
Here, a good concept has finally been executed wonderfully. Everything just
fits together. The bottle, the color of the liquid, the name, and the nature
of the scent itself.
Just as a side note, for me it is the best of the He Wood series, but that
is always a matter of taste.
HWOWW reminds me of driftwood, possibly even of rotten wood, which
is by no means meant negatively. This note paired with the
violet accord actually makes one think of wet wood in the ocean.
Really well done!
So if you're looking for a fresh scent of a different kind, you should
definitely go for this one. Longevity and sillage are only average, but I find
that perfectly fine.
As I already mentioned, everything just fits here. Even the color of the
liquid reminds one of seawater.
Even the bottle is framed with real wood. The whole thing is well thought out.

Once again: Thumbs up. A fresh scent without fruit, that’s something you
have to achieve. So far, no scent from Dsquared has really impressed me.
But this one managed to get me to order a bottle.
Moreover, it is very affordable. Around €20/50ml.

Thank you for reading my comment. I hope I could bring you a bit closer to the
scent :-)

One of my absolute favorites.

Unfortunately, it seems to be discontinued and only the last remaining stock is available. I went ahead and ordered 2 more bottles :)

If the D2 weren't so weak in terms of longevity... Check out Arcipelago Uomo. You get freshness without fruit for a small price, and it shines on hot days. Plus, no one else smells like it. ;)
