He Wood
He Wood by Dsquared2 is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2007 in the designer price tier. It opens with violet leaf and mineral accord, moves into cedarwood and vetiver and dries down to musk, amber and patchouli. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
- Mineral Accord Wet stone and flint. Cold, dry and modern.
Heart
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
