Woody notes for cooler days
Cedar, sandalwood and vetiver settle differently when the air turns crisp. Here is how we wear them at Parflab.
Woody fragrances stretch in cooler weather. Heat can flatten them; cold gives the resins and dry woods room to speak.
Look for cedar when you want structure, sandalwood when you want cream, and vetiver when you want a green, smoky edge.
Layering lightly
If a woody scent feels too stern, a soft floral or citrus decant on the pulse points can open it without fighting the base.
Keep layers minimal — one supporting scent is enough. The goal is clarity, not a cloud.
