Welcome to the captivating world of woody perfumes, where nature’s seasonal bounty meets the artistry of perfumery created. As the name suggests, woody scents are characterised by notes derived from various wood materials, including trees, roots, resins, moss, and even leaves and grasses, each imbued with earthy, warm or sensual qualities.
Rooted in nature, woody perfumes evoke the essence of the great outdoors, capturing the rugged beauty of forests and the tranquility of woodland groves where we live in the Lake District and Cumbria. These scents transport you to a world of serenity, where the earthy aroma of moss and the comforting warmth of cedarwood envelop the senses.
