He Wood, from DSQUARED² was released in 2007. The perfumer behind this creation is Daphné Bugey. It has the top notes of Violet and Violet Leaf, middle notes of Cedarwood and Vetiver, and base notes of Amber, Fir, and Musk.
From a collection point of view I absolutely couldn't wait to try this and I've been waiting a long time too! I very nearly bought it blind but finally I found it to test and I'm kinda glad I did. I love woody fragrances and the assortment of notes in this is right up my street. As I mentioned as a collector it's a must have in terms of innovative bottle design and brand distinction. When I initially sprayed it I got what can only be described as an awful, muggy horrible note which I identified as being the same smell I disliked from Azzaro Decibel although the scents are quite different this element is unbearable for me. Thankfully, this smell is short lived and when it's gone you're left with an lovely woody scent, that is well balanced and smooth...just what I like. I also tried the Rocky Mountain wood and I have to say I preferred that as it has more strength and spice but this one is pleasant and I will definitely add both to my collection at some point.
