Dossier Woody Ginger is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Woody Ginger opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Pepper, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Orange Blossom, and Violet Leaf, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Patchouli, and Tobacco.

This is a proper crowd-pleaser, delivering a fresh, spicy kick that's perfect for the everyday. It might not be a groundbreaking niche, but it's a solid, reliable choice that smells more expensive than it is. Easy to see why it's a fan favourite.

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.

The fresh spicy and woody accords, combined with its generally inoffensive nature, make it an excellent office fragrance. While its performance isn't beastly, its 'crowd-pleaser' status means it adapts well to casual settings but might get lost in formal or highly active situations.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a zesty burst of ginger and bergamot, sharpened by a hint of pepper. The heart introduces a surprising greenness from violet leaf, softened by a touch of orange blossom, adding a clean, fresh dimension. It settles into a warm, grounding base of patchouli, cedar, and a subtle tobacco whisper, creating a sophisticated woody dry-down that lingers nicely.
