Wood & Spice

Proraso Wood & Spice is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Wood & Spice opens with Cumin and Saffron, settles into a heart of Sandalwood and Cedar, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Rose. Proraso's Wood & Spice carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Proraso Wood & Spice is a divisive beast. Some adore its creamy, spicy woodiness and incredible value, hailing it as a hidden gem that punches far above its price point. Others recoil from what they perceive as a synthetic, even offensive, scent profile. This one is definitely a try-before-you-buy.

About

Imagine the rich warmth of aged sandalwood and cedar, softened by a powdery vanilla embrace. Initial bursts of exotic cumin and saffron lead into this woody heart, while a subtle rose note weaves through the base, lending a delicate floral nuance. It's a comforting yet sophisticated blend that leans into its name with straightforward honesty.
