Man Wood Essence
Man Wood Essence by Bvlgari is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2018 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot and citron, moves into cedarwood and vetiver and dries down to frankincense, benzoin and musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Citron Thick-skinned citrus, more zest than juice. Waxy and bright.
Heart
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
Dry-down
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
