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.

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.

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'm sorry but I love this stuff. It reminds me of a ashed dry version of bergomont 22. I mean I know woody citrus are all over the place but this makes me feel so confident when I wear it. It's definitely a compliment getter and I notice quality when it's present. I am very glad to have this in my collection. I will edit this review in a month when I get a few more wearings with it ;) great great great fragrance, sample it and you will see.

I absolutely love this fragrance! I’m a guitar player and when I read it smell like opening a guitar case I had to try it. It’s wonderful! It does smell like my acoustic guitar on steroids. I like to combine it with Lattafa Rouge and Le Labo Hinoki wood body cream. I get compliments all the time. I’ve spent a very long time trying to find a signature scent and I do believe I’ve found it. I recommend giving it a try.

It starts off with a masculine blast of woody notes, and after that, it morphs into a warm iris and amber drydown that is incredibly sexy. In fact, it could very well be the best drydown I've encountered so far. Sillage and longevity - perfect! Not too loud, not to soft. I can wear Electric Wood to work and to nice dinners.

I don't get ANY of these negative, or even so-so, reviews. In my opinion this stuff is phenomenal. Well over 12 hours of longevity. And a good few hours of projection. Completely versatile. This stuff is just a do it all scent. Woodsy, spicy, bright, fresh, sweet, it's got it all.

Great scent. An effervescent woody sweet spicy scent done right! Could’ve been amazing IF they would’ve improved the longevity and silliage. As is, one of my favorite scents that I won’t buy a full bottle of (have a decant) due to performance

A dry, clean, unisex wood that starts out quite crisp and zingy, then quickly softens to a slightly musky and powdery finish. Where Santal 33 turns slightly mouldy on me, this goes more soft and sweet. Definitely a signature.

Yes! Strong cedar in the opening, then mixes really nicely with the iris and nutmeg. A warm, dark, woody and really nice fragrance. Mostly masculine, but can probably be amazing on the right woman.

A niche, futuristic and woody version of Dior Homme. Quite nice. I get great longevity and projection.

creamy, ambery woods. Unique and incredibly sexy.

Smelled this at a shop for niche perfumes in Prague and kept going back to it, eventually spraying it on my hand. I took home a sample and have had it on for an entire day now. It's got great longevity, and it's ALMOST a great unisex scent. It really does smell like what its story evokes - heavily used guitars. This is a warm scent for cold weather, and it manages to smell both nostalgic and a bit edgy without being terribly offensive or headache inducing. However, on me there's a note that emerges about an hour in that keeps it from being great, and I suspect it's maybe the Ambroxan. It's metallic, and metallic scents simply don't work on me. They make me think of old tooth fillings! It's just too sharp. While I love a contrast in a perfume, and the metallic does indeed contrast with all that warm wood, it just isn't right on my skin. I'll enjoy my sample I'm sure, but won't purchase a full. If you can pull off a metallic note, give this one a go.

This used to be my most prized possession in my early cologne collecting days. I tried so hard, with so much difficulty, to force this to be "the one". Now though, the underperformance of this fragrance has become so apparent that the scent and projection that once drew me so closely now repels me. This cologne lacks substantial projection, longevity, and overall appeal. It might be a nice scent, but it sure isn't a sensual one. Others may find a surprising amount of harshness in the alcohol-scent, but I believe that it has a lesser-than-quaint smell. It doesn't smell terrible inherently, but as one's palette grows, so does their taste. Definitively, Room 1015's Electric Wood is a perfect cologne for those who are looking to enter the world of niche perfumery, and are looking to smell like a bourbon drinker's classy instrument for about thirty minutes. Mostly the last part though.

This might be my favorite from Room 1015. No citrus, but a fresh opening for a woody perfume. Nothing dark or heavy about this gem! It's a beautifully balanced scent, perfect year round, but excellent for summer.. I'm not fanciful enough to smell "guitar" from this, having owned a few in my day. But I DO smell fresh, woody and a touch of something floral as it dries down. Really nice. Unisex. Good performance. Lasts a long time on clothes. Gets compliments too. Leaves a very nice trail for hours. ------ I'm the layering type..just for fun. And, if you want to smell something really great, layer this with Chanel's Chance EDP...it's amazing together. Make sure it's the O.G. Chance, not a flanker.

So far, I really like this juice. Like a few others have said, it's almost like a lemon/citric woodsy scent profile, even though there's no citrus in this at all, according to the note breakdown. I'm guessing it's the cedar, and yet it doesn't give Electric Wood that barbershop feel that cedar often gives. To me, this fragrance falls into the same genre as Nassomatto Pardon and Guy Fox Palmer -- dominantly woody. That said, I give Electric Wood a like and not a love because even though I enjoy the scent, I can see myself getting tired of it quickly.

I can’t hide my disappointment. When I saw this was an ambroxan heavy scent, I couldn’t help but give it a test. Unfortunately, this isn’t my type of warm/musky/ambery ambroxan. Although the scent itself is not bad - it’s certainly not something I see myself wearing. It’s a creamy-wood scent. Upon first spray, I was immediately reminddd of bois 1920 relativamente rosso - another scent that is full and almost syrupy. For those chasing the molecule 02 ambroxan feel, this will not satisfy. Again, not a bad scent - but not for me. 5/10

I really enjoy this one! I have a lot of sweet fragrances in my collection, so this is a nice balance and change of pace. I really pick up the cedar and resin notes and it really does smell like an acoustic guitar to my nose! My partner absolutely loves it (as someone who collects guitars, not fragrances) and the lasting power is really fantastic with both of our body chemistries. Big thumbs up on this one. Very grounding scent!
