Perfumer H Rain Wood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Lyn Harris. Rain Wood opens with Elemi and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Angelica, Water Lily, Myrrh, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Juniper. Perfumer H's Rain Wood carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This perfume is a triumph of atmospheric realism, bottling the elusive scent of a post-rain forest. While some find a slight synthetic edge, most rave about its natural blending, even if the performance leaves a bit to be desired for its price point.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Rain Wood plunges you straight into a damp, evocative woodland. It opens with a fresh, green surge of juniper and galbanum, instantly conjuring petrichor and wet pine needles. This evolves into a heart of earthy oakmoss and cedar, softened by the delicate touch of water lily. Frankincense and myrrh add a subtle balsamic depth, evoking a misty, meditative forest floor after a heavy shower.
