Irresistible Wood For Men

Perfume Parlour Irresistible Wood For Men is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005. Irresistible Wood For Men opens with Mint and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Coffee and Sesame, and dries down to a base of Hazelnut and Cedar. Perfume Parlour's Irresistible Wood For Men carries a Statement verdict, a gourmand-led wear.

Irresistible Wood revives Givenchy's discontinued Very Irresistible for Men - that cosy mocha riff of mint, coffee, hazelnut and sesame. The chocolatey-coffee comfort core comes through nicely; as a budget take it leans a touch sweeter and flatter, trading the original's smooth gourmand polish for value.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

The coffee-hazelnut gourmand warmth is built for cold weather; it turns heavy and sickly in summer heat.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Cosy and approachable for casual days and intimate date nights, but its sweet gourmand profile is a little informal for formal settings.

About

Irresistible Wood opens cool and aromatic, a crisp mint over grapefruit that quickly gives way to the heart's signature trick: coffee and sesame folding together into a chocolatey, mocha-like accord. Hazelnut and Virginia cedar ground the drydown, lending a nutty, lightly woody warmth that keeps it cosy rather than dessert-sweet. As a budget clone of Givenchy's discontinued 2005 cult gourmand it captures that distinctive coffee-mocha comfort well - the same snuggly, moreish character reviewers loved in the original. The divergence is refinement: the dupe pushes the sweet coffee a little louder and the smooth, mellow blend of the original renders slightly flatter and more synthetic, with performance landing in the moderate 5-6 hour range. A warm, comforting cold-weather gourmand for anyone chasing a hard-to-find favourite.
