Superb woody maple, balanced, rich
Scents of Wood Praline in Maple, not in the initial catalogue of 2020 but was released in 2021, was one of fragrances that made the earliest big impression, though so much of the catalogue is pleasant and interesting to me. Praline in Maple fittingly has a maple sugar component and inspired by a springtime in Canada, there are also the woody and resinous hints that are evocative of being in a forest that’s neither wholly deciduous nor evergreen. It’s not excessively sweet, instead balancing the sugary maple with the woods and resins, a really pleasant experience that blends the outdoors and outright confection, somewhere in the vicinity of maple syrup as well as maple sugar candy from Vermont that I’ve tried. I think it’s a great example of how the line can balance out sweet and non-sweet elements, even though this fragrance in particular might be a little sweet for some, perhaps the maple-averse.
Praline in Maple is priced at $240/38 for 75/10ml, sold via the house site as well as great boutiques like Perfumology, the first to carry the brand in the US, and I do love the availability of the 10ml option as a travel / sample size. Performance is great and the fully 75ml bottle size design is elegant, and the 10ml size is tidy and classy, with its wood cap in a small cylinder.
