Forest Walk

Three words: Wet mossy rock If you want to smell identical to a huge, gray rock, covered in bright green moss, this is your perfume! I want to smell like that, but I'm not sure I would want to around other people. So this might be one of those perfumes I wear only for myself, at home. I find this perfume surprisingly sweet. There is something fruity in here because I might also add that it smells like moldy grapes. I was almost certain I'd see grapes in the list of notes. It takes me to the forest floor. It smells like evergreen trees, shade, and dampness. For some time I'd been lamenting the death of true chypres. I discovered perfumes like Cristalle, O de Lancome, Aromatics Elixir, and Paloma Picasso. I fell in love with oakmoss and wanted to find a modern one, only to figure out that nobody makes oakmoss perfumes anymore, whether it's because of a ban on ingredients or because it has simply gone of of fashion, or both. If you are anything like me, you are equally heartbroken over this. And here it is--oakmoss is alive again! Pun intended. It's vibrant, green, mildewy, and addicting in Forest Walk. I tip my hat off to Laurie for recognizing how badly this note is adored and desired by perfume lovers. Forest Walk is easily one of my favorites from this house.

Aptly named and simply DIVINE. Yes Unisex, but leans masculine. And although I often prefer more feminine scents, this one took me by surprise ... I like it. No, I LOVE IT! Cool pine trees, warm amber, florals, woodsy notes, all come together to create a most unexpected masterpiece, and not just for cool weather, I wore all day today, on a hot 80 degree day and It performed marvelous in the heat. I like it and want my own bottle ASAP. The third I tried from my discovery set and I have to say, I like everything I’ve tested so far, with two of them already on my “want list”. Can’t wait to try the rest. I feel fortunate to have learned about this extraordinary, California based house. Edit: Just to add that I woke up next day smelling like this. Heavenly, powerful and super long lasting.

That's a lot of woods combined in one. Wet autumn leaves you find in a decidious forest plus a smell of a sun-drenched pine forest on a hot summer day - sweet and resiny, with delicate violets one can find in early spring on a forest edge. Almost all seasons represented, maybe winter here is in windy mossiness one can find in stately and dark fir massives of Canadian Rockies. So yes, it's lots of worest walks, it is the very embodiment of many forest walks I might take here in Canada. Definitely not Mediterranean cypress and acacias walks, but something in climatic zone 3. Anyhow, I love it and would like a full bottle now.

Forest Walk is intoxicating period. For me,the winner and new heavy weight champion of the world, this is the best I've ever worn, compliments up the kazoo. Silage is perfect and longevity is about 8 hours or so. Forrest Walk is manly and just does it for me, A woman approached me and I swear she got weak in the knees, she said "my God you smell good" someone else can break it down, I'm just going to enjoy it. For the ultimate scent, I MEAN YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY SMELL ANY BETTER, LAY DOWN A BASE OF GREEN IRISH TWEED THEN LAYER IT WITH FORREST WALK PERIOD. FOR ME IT'S THE ULTIMATE.

Forest Walk starts off very woody. Lots of fir tree and oak, love the oak in this. Then as it progresses it gets very earthy, and I mean earthy. Like you are smelling the earth and it is carpeted in violets and moss. So realistic, it does smell like a damp wood. Just stunning. I find this leans masculine and I will probably gift the sample to my husband. This is the type of perfume that just smells dynamite on a man. Slight fresh spiciness in this one as well. Again, a perfect masculine fragrance.
