About

Guarding Wood is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Givenchy Bois Martial. It opens with Cedar, leads into a heart of Coconut, and dries down to Pineapple Leaf. The overall character is fruity with woody and sweet facets. It is a lighter, more linear interpretation than the original - less of the expensive nuance, but the headline accord comes through clearly for casual everyday wear.
