As much as we like fragrances with a clean, floral or citrus smell, when temperatures begin to drop, woody perfumes, with spicy, warm and intense aromatic notes, are the response to the instinct for protection and the search for warmth that dominates us.

In autumn, touches of wood such as cedar, in combination with ingredients such as sandalwood, vanilla, amber, tonka bean or vetiver, are especially appealing to wrap us in a cozy cloud. Next, five woody perfumes that you are going to want (a lot).

The One That Smells Like A Rainy Afternoon

With an aroma closely linked to nature, santal 33 dupe one of Dossier’s most famous perfumes– smells just like a rainy autumn afternoon. That olfactory aspect of wet earth, of humid trees, is transferred to a fragrance with notes of tonka bean, moss, cedar and vanilla. An aroma that invites you to seek a warm shelter, covers yourself with a blanket, pick up a book and read by the window.

With A Smoky Touch

The scent of forest, inspired by the sycamore tree, joins the smoky notes of vetiver in Chanel’s Sycamore perfume, like a fire crackling in autumn to create a spicy and highly seasonal fragrance. 

It includes a touch of cedar and vanilla, which provide a lot of warmth, to create an intense, unexpected and very special smell. One of those that you do not easily forget and for which they will always ask you. Despite belonging to the famous French firm, it is also a perfect perfume to surprise, as it belongs to the olfactory family of Les Exclusifs, less known and more exclusive than the rest of Chanel fragrances.

An Aroma With A Mystical Point

Those who confess to being fans of Tom Ford fragrances know that his intense aromas never leave you indifferent, which are diametrically opposed to any other perfume. This is also the case of Oud Wood, a fragrance with a mystical point that is inspired by the smell of incense in temples, precisely because of the main presence of oud wood. With less typical ingredients such as rosewood or cardamom, a smoky note thanks to vetiver and sandalwood and the warmth of tonka bean and amber, it is a sophisticated perfume, without being boring.

With The Smell Of Cashmere

For lovers of fresh fragrances with a clean smell, there are also more autumnal alternatives. A perfect option is Pure Musc by Narciso Rodriguez, which, like the rest of the firm’s perfumes, is based on musk, which in this case combines with cashmere and white flowers to convey the warmth of brand new sweater when it begins to wear. Approaching the cold A point between enveloping and energizing -it also includes jasmine and orange blossom-, ideal to improve your mood.

With Essence Of Roses

Amber, leather, oud wood, sandalwood… The Santal Royal perfume, belonging to Guerlain’s Les Absolus d’Orient collection, combines a whole series of oriental-type aromatic notes, but it does so in an unexpected way with the essence of roses. 

With this counterpoint, the smell of sandalwood is enhanced and a different touch is given to what otherwise could have been a more woody perfume. As if that were not enough, its black bottle with golden details is ideal for decorating any room in an autumnal way. One of those that you will not want to throw away once you finish the fragrance.
