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.

Essence is a fragrance that reflects the reconnection between modern man and nature. Created by renowned perfumer Alberto Morillas, the essence of this perfume lies in the harmony between green and woody elements, enveloped by an elegant citrus freshness. It is a fragrance that speaks to the urban man who seeks balance and authenticity. Performance Lasting time: 7 to 8 hours Projection: Moderate in the first 2 hours, becoming more intimate afterwards Sillage: Medium, elegant, without being invasive Although it is not a "beast mode", the performance is quite satisfactory, especially for a perfume more focused on woody freshness. It behaves well both indoors and outdoors. Ideal Occasions Bvlgari Man Wood Essence is extremely versatile. Its elegant and natural aura makes it suitable for: Workplace or meeting environments: conveys professionalism and confidence Daytime or spring/summer use: light and refreshing Casual meetings or social events: modern and pleasant Moments of introspection or contact with nature: its green DNA reinforces this connection Final Verdict Note: 8.5/10 Perfect for those who want to stand out in a subtle, classy and natural way.

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.

It's a big love from me as well. This is the kind of balsamic/aromatic-type of scents that you find in Chanel Sport Eau Extreme and YSL L'homme parfum Intense. Having grown tired of the old legend Acqua di Gio Profumo, this was a perfect refreshing substitute. And btw, I have showered twice today due to an extra exercise session and I can still smell this beauty. Two thumbs up from me! Edit: I just had to come to say I'm so glad I bought this bottle, it's indeed a grower, just like the trees and the bushes and plants it smells like. It feels like walking through thick green bushes in the middle of summer. Still it also got a hint of the fresh and spicy DNA of Bvlgari Man lurking in the background. What a great combo! I believe the nay-sayers here in time will realize what a hidden gem this indeed is.

I had actually set out to buy Neroli Wood Essence. But, after spritzing that I spotted Wood Essence. Which I tested on my other arm and completely forgot about Neroli Wood Essence! It made a powerful impression upon me with that delicately sweet, citrus opening and smooth, sensual base. Now, I love vetiver. But, sometimes it can feel too heavy or dominant for my liking. The vetiver is perfectly balanced here in Wood Essence. This has incredible staying power. I believe this is better suited to cooler weather. Which is tricky if, like me, you live in a subtropical climate. I've learned to restrain myself and spritz it lightly on my hair and clothes when it's warm. I appreciate it's a men's scent, but this works so well on me, I'm a huge fan. I hope Bvlgari keep making it!

Honestly? Hidden gem. VERY underrated, but only if you get from discounters. On full retail you can find similar frags that you'd pick instead of this. I wasn't expecting much, and like others said, the presentation and juice color is kinda ugly. But the scent, wow, caugh me by surprise. It's not at all a heavy wood, quite the opposite. Silky smooth, gentle and "upper class", the citrus and cypress combo is pretty obvious and well blended. Very light sweetness in the background. It keeps that spirit throughout the whole duration, but don't take this as a linear scent. The drydown gets a little more serious, but still retains its smoothness. Blind bought it, expecting to be disappointed. Turned out to be a very pleasant discovery.

BVLGARI MAN Wood Essence is just WOW! One of the most versatile fragrances out there. You can wear it to the office and still rock it later that night for a date. I spray 5-7 sprays, usually lasting me 6 hours. This scent will project in cooler and warmer weather but will get obnoxious if the weather is too hot. Mostly a spring and fall beast, but you can get away wearing it year-round. In terms of compliments, I would rate it a 3.5/5. It won't get you compliments unless someone hugs you have more of a moderate to intimate sillage. Overall a great fragrance that I believe every man should own. Overall a 4/5 and has been one of my top ten fragrances of all time. You can't go wrong with Wood Essence!

Heard great things about bvlgari so I checked some of their perfumes, smelt this one and out of hundreds upon hundreds which I smelled, this is one of the best I smelled, I absolutely love this scent, it has the smell of a magical green forest from the movies, gives of nature, relaxed and pleasent vibe from it's smell and I absolutely love these types of smells which it does perfectly, if you are a nature person or even just like the relaxing and unique smell of a forest, get this one ASAP, doesn't cost much but brings a lot to the table, for longevity and spillage I didn't get to check it, but I know it has at least 6h on my skin and somewhat sillage

This juice is so underrated. It is so uplifting, has magical sweet freshness. I can't stop smelling it. The name is not misleading because it's different woody scent. I would maybe rather call it forrest essence. It has spring forrest after rain feel, where all flowery, woody, aromas get mixed up andspread through the air. It's magical. The longevity is great on me. It could be certain people become anosmic after a while. EDIT: This is definitely the case. After a week of daily use i don't feel much of projection and sillage, even though it's definitely there. I get great reaction from others. So you do get anosmic after a while.

Honestly I love this stuff! You get a pleasant woody green smell but it has like a nice spicy tinge to it. It's like visiting a national park and you smell a little bit of that tree sap in the air. It's woody and spicy but it also has a sweet and fresh side too. I don't think this is your typical mainstream designer like some people assume. I didn't think this was going to smell like woods based on the notes but it actually does. I think this is a good fragrance for a guy who likes flannel shirts but wants a more pleasant upgrade from the average barbershop fragrance. This is like a designer release for a more outdoorsy guy.

An unexpected delight. Wood Essence hits you with a unique combination of earth and sweetness; natural and smoothly blended in. I am not particularly fond of sweet fragrances, but this one pulled it off nicely by balancing out with the earthiness. The cypress note pops out early on, but it melds with everything else soon after. The dry down is also sweet and earthy, yet it's unlike the opening. It's perhaps not the strongest projecting fragrance in the world, and the longevity is decent; nothing spectacular. The scent is top notch and definitely worth a try -- I'm very surprised to see the negative ratings on this one.

For me this is a really nice fragrance it starts off citrusy and a slight bit of sweetness, then as it drys down the woods hang around, and finally it settles with the benzoin. (Which I enjoy). I get 6+ hours on my skin and more on clothes. Alberto, always does a good job. It’s not a beast but it performs great for date, office, or places like church. You can’t trust just any single review, look at the averages. Everyone’s skin is different, plus how many sprays and where are you spraying. I have many other designer fragrances that perform worst than this on my skin and spray patterns, to name one D&G The One EDT.

For the people that want character buy Rasasi Hawas Atlantis. This is honestly a very nice smell, sweet woody aromatic green. Not sickly sweet or sharp. It is very non offensive and it's also not heavy on the wood. I would even say it smells classy. I finished my bottle and I just can't help but give it a good review after the nice experience. It's also quite a relaxing smell. I don't understand why it's getting any hate for not being unique I personally haven't smelled anything exactly like this for a cheaper price otherwise I would buy 10 bottles. Literally i would.

If I could interpret this composition the way my love does, it would be the top. How good this perfume is! 'Wood Essence' evolve into something unique and different every time he wears it. Sometimes it is marine, I think it's the cypress with citrus zest that makes me feel it like that. Unpredictable. Very fresh, aromatic, the woody side is there but I have to discover it little by little, sniffing the skin very closely, patiently, making my way through the sweetly resinous notes. A superb reinterpretation of Bvlgari Man that I greatly appreciate!

My husband and I dabbled with a scent subscription for a while, and he has this. I'm really surprised to see that the ratings aren't higher, but I'm not a guy I guess 🙃 It's opening is really nicely citrus and fresh, but it dries down to a lovely woody musk with plenty of cedar. We're from the PNW, and the cedars are beautiful. I find this really laid-back, sexy, but not try hard. It makes me want to snuggle my dude. The overt bad boy stuff is really fun, but this smells like a husband who can adventure with you for life, I love it!

In my opinion, the bottle and color is pretty off-putting. It looks like some green monster inspired Halloween prank juice. Smells super nice though. I got a sample of this for free with an order, so I was excited to try it since I never saw myself interested in this one due to the bottle and color. At first smell, I was pretty drawn in. It is sweet, citrusy, and woody, but the woodiness is not overpowering. I am a fan of this one. Dare I say that it is "unique" since nobody seems to really talk about this one often?

This is one of my top colognes, I receive lots of compliments from the ladies and I love its sweet citrusy/low woody masculine smell. The other day I was in a lecture and one of my friends was sniffing me every-time I walked past her 😂 you could literally see her nostrils widening. The cologne last moderately long with a sweet die down and had a pretty good projection, if you're near somebody they'll smell it. If your looking for a masculine sweet cologne that isn't intoxicatingly sweet this is the one for you.

Gorgeous fragrance. I expected more wood when i first saw this fragrance but that is not the case. Citrusy opening, mostly bergamot, which dries down into a beautiful powdery shower gel-esque smell. Gotten so many compliments with it but that is only when people got close to skin. Atrocious projection and average longevity. If the projection and longevity were not so bad i would bathe in this scent daily. One of my favourite smells, shame it doesnt last Smell 10/10 Longevity 6.5/10 Sillage 2.3/10
