Mischief Academy Pinocchio is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Anh Ngo. Pinocchio settles into a heart of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Palo Santo. Mischief Academy's Pinocchio carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive woody scent, Pinocchio nails the 'fresh-cut wood' concept brilliantly for some, but others will be turned off by an unfortunate pickle-like note. If you're a woody fragrance fan, it's worth a sniff - but test on skin first.

About

Imagine the inside of a master carpenter's workshop - that's the core of Pinocchio. It opens with a sophisticated blend of cedar and sandalwood, giving a smooth, polished woodiness, subtly spiced by saffron. As it settles, vetiver adds an earthy dimension, while palo santo lends a touch of aromatic warmth. A delicate, non-sweet peach skin note smooths the edges, making the overall woodiness feel less raw and more refined. It's truly a sophisticated take on a predominantly woody profile.
