This perfume got my attention because of the notes in it. I was thinking that it has to be something extraordinary and it is. Bloody Wood has a beautiful opening with a bouquet of roses which changes quickly into the scent of Rose Oxide together with aroma of Cherries and Raspberries. Rose oxide is a fragrance chemical found in roses and rose oil and it has a little bit sweet and fruity smell, like the flavour of some wines - such as Gewürztraminernot - as well. Bloody Wood is not the deep and dark, thick smell of wine straight from the glass but it’s like a wine with a lot of Raspberry and Cherry juice diluted a little bit with a water. That makes this utterly enjoyable, sophisticated and classy scent despite of the cold, bloody like gothic feeling in the background. Raspberry and Cherry are not jammy or sticky nor too sweet. The base of the scent is woody but I visited last time in Italy in one friend’s wine cellar which was full of old dark oak barrels and i bet you don’t want exactly that smell in your perfume. It’s beautiful for sure but it’s as well damp, musty and aged. Oak barrel and woody note here is younger and smooth, Sandalwood making it even smoother. It’s anyway transparent and the colour of the juice tells actually the intensity of this concoction. I adore this scent but if you want a very long-lasting scent you may be disappointed. This last few hours and it’s enough for me during those days when I need to change the scent during a day. Thank you for reading and if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes
