Sweet Apricot but where is Cognac
The first things that comes to mind when I'm thinking about Scent of Wood are rich textures, dark tones and intense aromas. Plum in Cognac was exactly like that. You could sense the aroma of the oak barrel in it, although the scent is clearly a fruity plum scent and the cognac aroma is also refined and gentle.

Apricot in Cognac is clearly even more refined. You can barely detect a boozy aroma from the scent, it is more of Vanilla Apricot with an extremely soft creamy base. The vanilla aroma is formed by a combination of benzoin and Sandalwood and roasted sesame makes the scent really pleasant, soft and adds a gourmand-like essence to it.

The scent is sweet, delicious and very easy to use. I personally miss more character in it so that it wouldn't be so clearly gourmand. Apricot is well made and the scent does not seem synthetic in any way. It is balanced, high-quality, and an excellent concoction in every way. The scent is unisex, but its sweetness and simplicity leans towards the feminine. To my nose, the citruses do not stand out clearly, nor does Juniper Berry.

I wore a whole sample of this fragrance and was excitedly waiting to see if it would reveal any new aspects, but it didn't. The scent leaves nothing to be guessed at, it doesn't swirl with mystery, but rather charms gourmand friends with its irresistible edible essence. I don't know why this perfume woulds be categorised as oriental.

Thank you for reading, I hope you liked my review.

It's a smokiness that isn't campfire, a sweetness that's not cloying making this a perfect scene for those colder months when you want to conjure warmth. Very unique and unisex, will be worthwhile for all sorts of occasions but probably better at night than during the work day. They sell it in travel sizes too which is really great.

Opens very juicy, but the fruit smells a bit sharply synthetic to me for the first hour. Later I thought it was nice and apricot remains.

Absolutely in love! Warm and sweet, the cognac note fades over time and leaves a powdery apricot :)

The notes sounded great, but I can't handle this very specific sweetness - too heavy, too intense, lacking fruity freshness...

The drydown is beautiful... but until then, there's a very piercing sweetness that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. H/S top
