How does Rayhaan Wood Noir smell?
Rosewood, cardamom and Chinese pepper open Rayhaan Wood Noir. Rosewood is a light, slightly floral wood, cardamom adds cool spice and Chinese pepper a tingling, citrusy heat. The heart brings oud, sandalwood and vetiver: dark resin, creamy wood and a dry, earthy grassiness. Wood dominates this middle layer.
Tonka bean, vanilla and amber sit in the base. They add sweetness and warmth to the woods above, tonka and vanilla soft and creamy, amber resinous. The scent therefore starts spiced and aromatic, deepens into a mix of woods and ends sweet and warm, which gives it a dark but smooth overall shape.
Who is Rayhaan Wood Noir for?
Wood Noir is listed for men, and the shop tags it for autumn and winter, along with evening and special. Oud, sandalwood and vetiver backed by tonka and vanilla suit a wearer who likes a woody scent that is deep but not harsh.
