Simple Tranquility
Hinoki & Cedarwood was love at first sniff for me. I've been curious about Hinoki notes for awhile and this fragrance served as my introduction to the note while leaving me both impressed and hungry for more!
This opens with a gorgeous cinnamon sprinkled soapy accord that makes me think of a high end, quiet sauna. The slight spice lingers as the strongest woody top notes begin to evaporate giving me a cola adjacent vibe on my skin. As the spices continue to fade, the soapiness remains and mingles with the light and distinguished woody aroma of hinoki. From there the fragrance stays linear as it dries down, keeping up the uniquely fresh and luxurious smelling clean woody accord.
This is a great fragrance to wear when looking for something light, airy and fresh and is perfect for fall weather but can easily be worn year round. It's definitely not a strong, spicy woody fragrance, but rather a very peaceful, uplifting scent reminiscent of a breeze in a quiet forest clearing. I've shied away from Jo Malone in the past due to performance concerns but I find that this fragrance has impressive longevity for how light it is. While it sits close to the skin and does not have much in the way of silage/projection, I get about 7-8 hours on skin and all day on clothes.
This is perfect to wear when looking for something calming, but relaxing. It's not like a Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum that calms in an uplifting, invigorating way. This calms in a tranquil soft way that just leaves you feeling clean, clear headed and ready to find peace in your day. I'm happy to own this in my collection and will be reaching for it a lot this fall. Sample first!
