Woodcut Parfum — Olympic Orchids
Parfum / Extrait from Olympic Orchids.
Scent description (editorial impression)
Fresh-cut lumber, and specifically so: wearers describe sawn boards, sap, bark and the hot-metal smell of a saw, like a lumber yard or the wood aisle of a hardware store. The caramel is the variable. On some skin it is just the warmth of cut wood; on others it takes over and cloys.
Drawn from 32 independent reports across 5 venues.
