Bvlgari Man Wood Essence

I ran out of class to avoid answering at the blackboard, so I'll write a review of this perfume in my spare time. I really enjoy Bvlgari man line, my first fragrance from this line was Bvlgari Man in Black, that's was my first sample, and i fall in love with that one. Than i noticed this one, i ignored it some time, because I didn't understand how it smell based on notes, so I put off buying a sample for a while. Recently i bought this fragrance, and today I finally sprayed it on my self. First expression was like that: Wow it's smells way better than i thought, and even better than it was on my hand. Top notes smells amazing, really enjoy to wear it. But i admit some problems. Dry down smells like man shower gel, but very good and high quality shover gel, i have sample of Bvlgari Man Glacial essence, and dry down of that smells very similar to Bvlgari Man Wood essence, so i think these dry downs і common to the entire line, it is, so to speak, the DNA of Bvlgari. How it smells? Top notes smells like citrus zest with sugar mixed with needles and other forest greens. Hard to say how dry down smells, but I can say for sure, I don't smell citrus anymore, some sweetness are still felt, but now sweetness mixed with cypress and some cedar, can't be sure i feel benzoin notes. At all Bvlgari Man Wood Essence good option if you want to stand out from mass for normal price, smells good, if you want to smell like forest, you can check this out, but i sure this is not the best option.

Really don't get the hate around this fragrance. It's my signature scent and I really hope it stays under the radar. I've personally never smelled anything similar to this so in that sense it's very unique. I've had a colleague smell it because he found it familiar and he guessed about 20 times before giving up. Also, a great compliment getter from the ladies - but don't expect those to fall from the sky, it's not an average crowd pleaser. Generally, this is a bit more formal and a bit mature fragrance in my opinion. Safe all rounder except for maybe scorching summers where it might get a bit dense, but still a good choice. Wouldn't recommend blind buying it as it's not your regular freshie. Only reason why it's not a 10/10 is it's longevity - while I've had it stay on up to 12 hours, it projects mildly after about 2 hours. The bottle is beautiful but a bit tough to handle. But then again, nobody is going to bother about the bottle once they smell you. tl;dr - unique scent, signature worthy, all rounder, great with ladies.

To the experienced folks the initial impression would be a bit synthetic but as it dries, man you realize that it's just how benzoin and cypress combo took over the whole opening (I don't get any citrus sugar thing maybe 10% if any) and it smells like some strong synthetic resin which is trying to be fresh. Unpleasant if you overspray but do it anyway, trust me. The drydown is to die for. If you like the idea of classic green manly fragrances, this is a green, woody, manly fragrance which is sweetened by real Benzoin Siam Absolute as per their ingredients list. Real resins are always likely to overpower stuff but anyway, I care more about drydown. (I would overspray this and then would sit alone for like 15 min). This is my guilty pleasure. You realize the quality of this fragrance in the drydown. Beside quality, the only thing I was surprised of while researching and experiencing this fragrance for a few months was how come it smells so mass appealing, idk why I didn't bother to check the perfumer before.

Great fragrance. Fresh and woodsy. I don't understand how a fragrance can perform so poorly on one person but perform great for others but I think this fragrance is great for the price you can get it for at discounters. I recently got a 3 pack of 15ml mini bottles of Bvlgair Man in Black, Wood Neroli and this, Wood Essence. I tested Man In Black a few days ago and it's great. I tried Wood Essence today, and I sprayed it before leaving for work about 12 hours ago and as I type this, now home, I can still smell it wafting up from my neck. About an hour and a half after I first sprayed it, when I arrived at work, one of my friends who was well over 5 feet away from told me I smell great and that this is her official favorite that she's smelled on me. 1.Compliments-yes 2.Longevity-yes 3.Projection-yes 4.Overall-YES! Definitely worth checking out if you like fresh woody fragrances.
