Clean White Woods is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Harry Frémont. White Woods opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Magnolia, Lily, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Clean's White Woods carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - Clean White Woods is a divisive one. Some find it a warm, sophisticated embrace, others a bland, soapy disappointment. It's either a subtle masterpiece or a glorified dryer sheet, depending on your skin and your expectations.

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:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its inoffensive 'clean' character, make it ideal for the office or casual wear. The subtle projection means it won't overpower on a date, though it lacks the punch for formal events. It's a great 'freshen up' scent post-sport, but not a performance-driven sports fragrance.

About

Clean White Woods opens with a fleeting citrus sparkle from bergamot and mandarin, quickly giving way to a soft floral heart of magnolia, lily, and orchid. The real magic unfolds as it settles into a comforting base, blending creamy sandalwood and amber with warm musky woods, rounded out by a hint of sweet praline. It's a gentle, woody-floral musk that aims for a 'clean' but cozy vibe.
