Claudio Zucca Parfums Mineral Wood is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Claudio Zucca. Mineral Wood opens with Bergamot, Orange, Frankincense, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Smoke, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Cypress, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, and Oakmoss. Claudio Zucca Parfums's Mineral Wood carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive yet distinctive woody scent that draws comparisons to classics but comes with a hefty price tag. It's a natural, soothing blend of citrus, smoke, and woods that some absolutely adore, while others feel it's overpriced for what it delivers.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its moderate sillage and natural, soothing profile make it versatile for most settings, including the office, though its woody depth really shines in casual and date scenarios. It's too refined for sport, and its earthy character might be too informal for black-tie events.

About

Mineral Wood opens with a bright, natural burst of zesty orange and bergamot, uplifted by a subtle frankincense. This quickly settles into a rich heart of dry cedar and creamy sandalwood, underscored by an authentic, churchy smoke and green cypress. The base introduces a clean vetiver and earthy oakmoss, softened by musk, creating a profound, woody aroma that lingers with elegant depth.
