Woody fragrances: the depth of precious ingredients
Deep, warm and enveloping, woody fragrances hold a distinctive place in the world of perfumery. Inspired by the richness of natural essences, they reveal an olfactory palette with many nuances, from fresh green notes to dry, smoky and warm accords.
Among the iconic ingredients in this fragrance family, cedarwood stands out for its dry, elegant and slightly resinous notes. Sandalwood offers a softer, creamier and more enveloping character. Vetiver reveals earthy, distinctive and sometimes smoky facets, while patchouli is prized for its woody depth and warm, damp nuances. Precious and intense, oud wood brings a resinous and mysterious dimension to fragrance compositions.
Other ingredients further enrich these accords: incense, with its smoky and mineral nuances; leather, with its distinctive character; and amber and spices, which add warmth and sensuality.
A collection of woody fragrances with distinctive personalities
The woody fragrance family lends itself to many interpretations. Some compositions highlight the understated elegance of cedarwood and vetiver, while others explore the softness of sandalwood, the depth of patchouli or the intensity of oud. Woody accords can also blend with spicy, amber or leather notes to create richer, more enveloping fragrances.
Through its Les Boisés collection, Maison Godet explores these different olfactory expressions. Creations such as Cuir de Russie, Empire des Sens and Corps & Âmes illustrate the diversity of this world, with leather, incense, patchouli and precious woods. Each composition has its own personality and reveals a different facet of the woody fragrance family.
