Electric Wood

Sampling Room 1015 Electric Wood EDP, a 2015 release, one of the house’s very few first releases, a sharp, spicy, woody mix that’s as charged as its name suggests. The note listing is fascinating to the point that it merits sharing in its entirety, I think—nutmeg, lemon, sage, cedar, oak, ambroxan, iris, musk. It’s fresh, has a curious spicy / herbal mix, with a musky quality that leaves it midway between rough and smooth, in a good way. A very interesting blend that I could see one wearing a lot or saving for special occasions, not too heady or dense to be challenging in warm weather but nonetheless striking me as something better reserved for cooler days and evenings, with very good performance, overall. It seems like Electric Wood EDP is still fairly widely sold but with less availability than the newer Extrait, released in 2025, to the point that I cannot confirm the EDP’s retail pricing, but it seems to be $184/125 for 100/50ml, and is sold via the house site and great boutiques like Perfumology. 8 out of 10

This one brings me such joy. I have a 10ml vial and as soon as I can, I'm getting a full bottle. It's both soft and edgy, and relaxing in an odd way. I definitely understand the idea of it smelling like a new guitar. It's a very airy woody scent. Almost like woodshavings while you're sanding a new floor or doing renovations (without the gross paint and chemical smells in the room of course). It's unisex but perfectly so. I wouldn't say it's masculine or feminine leaning at all. It's just what it is. There's a lovely sweetness to it that mixes so well with my skin. It's lasting power is great. It's not a beast at all purely because of it's overall feeling of softness, but it lasts for sure. I've smelled it on me the day after initially spraying it. I absolutely love this one. In my opinion, it's worth the price (which isn't horrendous either, just as a broke student I've I've waiting on it lol)

This is my second bottle of electric wood! If you like fragrances like Bergamot 22 or Dyptique Tam Dao, you will absolutely LOVE this one. Proper use of ambroxian gives it a masculine touch, not overdone like boring Suavage. To sum it up, this is a hidden gem, it’s a perfect mix of citrus, wood, and warm electric guitar 🎸 it’s dry, dusty, sexy, and makes me happy each time I spray up. I love niche perfumery! I wear this any time of the year, it will go with any season and occasion.

This fragrance is absolutely gorgeous. Such a smooth wood and iris scent. The resins give this fragrance a gorgeous backbone. I think the resins are either Benzoin and or Myrhh. Last around 7 to 9 hours and projects for 2-3 hours. Please get your nose on this bad boy. I think you will be truly amazed by how good a Cedar and Iris combo can smell. I don't think this smells like a guitar at all, but, it is one hell of a gorgeous resinous men's fragrance.

I love bold yet comforting fragrances. I've tested this one for a few weeks off and on, and I love it. Loved it, couldn't place exactly why... Until today... This smells like a cedar chest filled within wonderful, nostalgic memories from my childhood. The cedar is obvious, no doubt, but it is more rich than plain ole cedarwood. All of the notes blended together bring comfort, nonspecific happy memories with family. This is a fragrance for me to enjoy.
