Dryness Has a Name
Some fragrances manage to convey more than just olfactory sensory impressions. Finn Juhl is one of them; it is: dry. Bone dry. Dry like a desert wind. So dry that it cracks like parched wood. I love dry scents and have been searching for the ideal wood fragrance for a long time.
In the top note, a green yet fruity fig dominates. The woody notes already break through and perfectly complement the fig, preventing it from developing any stickiness or excessive sweetness. At the same time, the fig awakens the wood and, together with the bergamot, gives it an organic liveliness.
The heart note remains very subtle in the background, allowing the wood to gain depth and warmth through it.
As the fragrance evolves, all components gradually fade, a very slightly smoky note breaks through, and the wood becomes drier and drier and drier…
The first branch of Granhand has opened in Bukchon, a still-inhabited and very well-maintained neighborhood of Seoul, where only the traditional Korean Hanok houses exist. Finn Juhl fits perfectly into the narrow alleys lined with ornate walls, carved wooden beams, archways, and massive wooden doors.
When I received the sample pack, the employee asked me what my favorite fragrance was. I named Finn Juhl without hesitation. He gifted me a scented sachet along with the samples, which has been scenting my sweaters in the closet for six months now and brings me good mood every day.
The employee was not surprised that I liked Finn Juhl so much. This fragrance was chosen by Chanel to line the catwalk with scented candles at Seoul Fashion Week.
Finn Juhl, like many fragrances from Granhand, is named after a real person. Finn Juhl was a Danish designer who significantly influenced Scandinavian design. His chairs, in particular, are known worldwide. They are characterized by organically curved and pleasantly rounded frames with comfortable leather seats. They are - just like the fragrance - exactly to my taste.
