Woody Mood Olfactive Studio 2017

Woody Mood literally translates to woody mood. Just because of the name, getting to know it better has been of great interest to me. The label has also been on my radar for some time. Therefore, nothing stood in the way of a detailed test - and I was anything but disappointed. Because the name truly reflects the essence!
The golden-yellow amber liquid promises a promising, ethereal forest scent. The opening sends out a slightly fresh, citrusy note. This briefly lasting fresh forest air is framed by a wonderfully mild-bitter cocoa nuance. Not intense or sweet, but initiating and leading into the further development of the fragrance. In my opinion, this start forms the basis, the framework for the other components. A slight sharpness, presumably from the ginger, joins in right away. This harmony is supported by a similarly mild, herbaceous subtlety.
This constellation of aromas forming the top note is excellently executed. But Woody Mood has more to offer, much more, because we are just at the entrance of the monumentally impressive giant sequoia forest...
As more and more ethereal-balsamic tones slowly mix in, we find ourselves more on wooded terrain. Fragrant, slightly smoky forest floor combines with an incredibly beautiful, smooth, and warm woodiness. The scent is never overwhelming or jagged; the forest is not burning anywhere, and it always appears accessible and excellently realized! Occasionally, a slightly bitter facet flashes through, likely arising from the tea, rounding out the entire fragrance spectrum towards the middle. At this point, we are already deeper in the forest.
Upon reaching the end of the forest, at the drydown of the fragrance, a caressing woody-resinous component mixes in. The styrax likely conveys this warm-sensual and resinous finale, accompanying us until we exit the forest...

I write comments on fragrances that touch me deeply with their magic and aura. I want to try to convey and bring the special impression to the readers of these lines.
But what is so special about Woody Mood for me? There are many forest scents, and they are probably all somewhat similar!
What fascinates me about the fragrance is the complex aura that arises in terms of projection and radiance! It is this veil that the scent creates!
When I smell directly on the skin, I can recognize individual images, perceive individual aromas. Like looking through a kaleidoscope. I look through, and each time I see a different beautiful image.
But it is the sum of these components that makes Woody Mood truly extraordinary, enchanting, and intense...
A scent that, in my opinion, is unparalleled, and as beautifully sublime and majestically powerful as the giant sequoias of our planet!
Thank you for reading.
