This is my first post here so, hello! Glad to find an IMAM community here on Lemmy!

Today I am wearing Woodcut from Olympic Orchids. Notes are: Fractional distillations of pine and cedar, oakwood absolute, tolu balsam, olibanum, caramel, burnt sugar, vanilla.

This is one of my go-to favorites. Alcohol based, excellent wear, moderate throw. At first spray, you basically feel like you entered a lumber mill. Very realistic smell of freshly cut pine and cedar. The vibe is redwood forest lumberjack. There’s a faint burnt scent, not like smoke but like maybe friction from a saw cutting a large tree. Halfway through the wear, the fresh cut wood becomes less intense and a faint warm sweetness becomes more present and lingers through the rest of the day. That faint caramel/vanilla/brown sugar goes so great with the sharp lumber notes. They bring this scent out of totally weird/for at home use only territory and into interesting but wearable everyday scent. 5/5
