In the context of fragrances, however, woodiness takes on darker, more sultry alter ego.
Maison Francis Kurkdjian?s Aqua Media Cologne Forte uses a musky wood to balance the lightness of bergamot, verbana, and jasmine. Shop it here.

Despite the olfactory transparency of wood, ginger, and sage, Issey Miyake?s L?Eau d?Issey Pour Homme Vétiver has surprisingly strong sillage. Shop it here.
