Wood Spring

Wood Spring opens vibrant and pungent with pink pepper, pink grapefruit and bergamot, already tinged with leather. The heart is where it earns its inspiration: smoky oud and rose dance against patchouli, black tea and labdanum, with leather threading through as the main player rather than the oud. The drydown turns creamy and comforting - tobacco, incense, vanilla, sandalwood, amber and cedar. Inspired by Montale Oudrising, it chases that distinctive smoky leather-and-oud-with-sweetness character. As a Perfume Parlour version it renders the composition flatter and more linear, with the inexpensive leather and citrus weighted up and the brash niche woody facets softened, so it projects less and sits closer to the skin than the original's soft-but-persistent trail. The result is a dark, smoky oud-leather that captures the mood of Oudrising for a fraction of the price.
