Woodphoria (2025)

First things first: I've never smelled the original and actually prefer this bottle design to the other. This is the androgynous, effortlessly cool girl who's a little bit of a loner by choice since she has a cool artsy job (think fashion editor, museum curator or Afro-house DJ) that often keeps her social against her will. She's in her late 20s-early 30s and her plants are her babies. Raised on the bustling streets of the Northeast, she’s found peace in the misty mountains and overcast skies of the Pacific Northwest, her new (and likely forever) home. The fig + coconut combo is a dream, wrapped in the earthiness of cedar and sandalwood, sprinkled with the sweet spice of cardamom. This is a beautifully warm, lactonic scent that dries down musky and slight sweet. Three words: sensual, effortless and velvety.

LOVE! Smells like a nice bonfire during a fall night, hanging out with friends and being carefree. It's so effortlessly fresh and woodsy, with a nice touch of creaminess that gives it a more unisex profile and eliminates that screechy blast some wood scents can give. Opens up so bright, green, and slightly spicy but inviting, then dries down to the best, sweet clean-smelling woody scent, which lingered on me a decently long time. If you're into cool-girl scents that no one else has, I think this would be absolutely perfect.

Sweet, woody coconut, no pickle vibe at all if Santal 33 has scarred you like it has me. It projects pretty well for the first half hour, then is more intimate (sampled on a hot day). It smells a lot like Le Monde Gourmand's Chai Épicé on my skin, but woodier, and I actually prefer Woodphoria. After two hours, it's mostly cedar, and the dry down reminds me a lot of Burberry (for Women/original). I don't care for the bottle, it looks like it's marketed to teens.

Never tried the 2022 version but picked up a travel size of the new formulation. I was craving something woody while at the beach in the high heat and this doesn’t disappoint. Coconut, fig, and jasmine keep it from feeling too masculine or heavy. Will definitely be purchasing a full bottle. Love finding affordable fragrances. Jerome Epinette does no wrong in my book.

SO gorgeous and lasts so long on my skin, such a unique scent that combines woody, earthy and florals. I love boy smells but some of their scents come out too sweet for me and this was a perfect happy medium, layers so so well with spicy or other woody scents. Reminds me the smell of the interior of a 70s, wood paneled beach house.

sexy sweet baby powder, woodsmoke, and cigarettes. pink tank top jasmine perfume and smoking around a sweet-smelling bonfire. it smells very effortless. the sort of perfume i'd love to overspray, and the rare sort that doesn't become offensive when one does.

Beautiful, perfection. Pulls very soft, woody, and sweet on my skin. I don’t pick up any coconut though. Bought both the reformulation and 2022 version and see almost no difference, only that the reform pulls more woody. Love this combination!!!

my new signature scent, ive gotten more compliments on this than any perfume ive ever had before this one Combined,......................................... Everyone complaining abt the new bottle IDGAF. its awesome.

in love with this!! i do think this is unisex but the opening smells masculine to me. it smells like you’re in the woods camping. then it starts to get creamier and sweeter on the dry down.

This is very similar to the original for me. It has a slightly stronger coconut that I think balances the dry woodiness very well. I think they did a great job with this reformulation.

this smells like the sexiest smelling girl at a bonfire. sweet mixed with that woody smokiness. i love to smell it on my clothes days later. no notes!

I'm a big fan of Boysmells for their genderless, affordable fragrances. A bit sad I haven't had the chance to try the old formulation, but the 2025 version of Woodphoria is very approachable! Another one of those fragrances that smells terrible on the tester (according to gf) but smells intoxicating on me (also according to gf), I think this one depends on your body chemistry. But, if you like polarizing and strong scents, and those tend to work well for you, this could fit as a more regular choice in your rotation. To me, the woody notes do a great job of tying in the coconut and cardamom. It's fresh, warm, slightly sweet, but still well-rounded. Kind of like if Bath and Bodyworks had a collection for people working in corporate. Mass-produced, but not common enough for someone to know what you're wearing off the jump.

Woody, spicy, and slightly vanilla-y or tonka bean-y notes are what I get from jump. I'm not crazy about this fragrance but I do really like it. It's very very warm and comforting without being too sweet. Quite lovely. Not bright at all, which I like, but does pack a punch. I do find it unique. A more feminine-leaning profile. Good longevity, lasts about 7-8hrs on my clothes.

Reminds me of a bonfire on a crisp fall night. Woody and smoking with a hint of sweetness. I wouldn't say its a safe blind buy because I think it can be a bit strong to some.

This is much more warm and spicy than the old version, the old version was a lot more figgy and damp smelling

can more hot people wear this around me? thanks

perfect for a sexy non binary wood creature

I want to love this because I really enjoy sandalwood. I, however, do not want to smell like a carton of cigarettes all day which is exactly how this smells on me. I’m shocked because it is so similar to Glossier You Doux, which I love, but there is something bitter about this one whereas Doux is smooth to me. Edit- it is a lot more pleasant after dry down. I definitely smell the minty scent others describe! I’m not sure if I’ll reach for this but I do enjoy smelling it. Maybe I will try it on my husband.

If you're concerned about the coconut note, I would absolutely not categorize this as a coconut scent. It's a smooth sandalwood and cedar fragrance. I don't detect the jasmine or cardamom either. As someone who doesn't typically like sandalwood, I don't mind this, but it's not my fave.

smells good. I get the coconut water, I get the fig leaf, I get the sandalwood/cedar. longevity is ok, projection isn't good. unisex, fresh, somewhat unique but definitely still safe and inoffensive. daytime scent for all seasons. nothing to write home about, but it is pleasant.
