Pineward Perfumes Cotswold is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Nicholas Nilsson. Pineward Perfumes's Cotswold carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a divisive but captivating scent for woodland lovers, offering a realistic, smoky cabin experience with a sweet vanilla core. It's not for everyone, with some finding it too 'candle-like' or even cloying, but fans absolutely adore its cosy, rustic charm.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its long-lasting, moderate sillage and strong, smoky character make it less suitable for office or sport. It truly shines in casual settings or on a date where its cosy, unique aroma can be appreciated, especially during colder nights.

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.

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

Cotswold opens with a dense, authentic blast of pine needle and smouldering oak, like a campfire just put out, before settling into a warm, woody embrace. Cedar provides a grounding forest floor feel, while vanilla weaves through the smoke and wood, adding a comforting, slightly boozy sweetness that stops just short of gourmand. It's a journey from the sharp outdoors to a cosy, rustic interior.
