About

Core Wood is a budget amber fragrance from Perfume Parlour. It opens with Pepper, leads into a heart of Benzoin, Cedar, and dries down to Sandalwood, Amber, Musk. The overall character is amber with woody and warm spicy facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than a designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day. Note coverage here is light, so this profile is a best-effort reading rather than a deeply documented pyramid.
