Silver Wood

Yeah, I said it! It's BETTER than the Dior Bois D Argent! I really like the Dior, but it never lasts on my skin. I actually SOLD my bottle because the longevity was terrible. Once I tried the Silver Wood, I was sold. My wife loves it on me too. 99.9% of the BDA without the performance issues at a fraction of the price. That's a NO BRAINER!

Layer this with "Jack" for a unique olfactory masterpiece. At first I didn't smell much of anything but it's sat for a year and it's not meant to be beast mode but a classy musky soft wood. This is one to layer with Zion, Jack, Sunday Morning or San Diego Exclusive, among others. Thanks. I own 40 full bottles and 8 sample boxes. Great house!

As described, Beautiful florals, with a pronounced iris smell. A little powdery but seems to clear up as it dries down, leaves a nice scent bubble and last fairly long time thank you hani!

It's mainly a woody/powdery mix, though I get a vetiver, which I simply might mistaking in place of the cypress or other listed woody notes. In that respect, I liken it to a powdery cousin of Chanel Sycomore, but less woody.

Some have discussed the sweetness, but I don't specifically get honey or any other sweet vibes. I do get the resins and leather somewhat, to add some depth to the powdery iris and woody mix that dominates the fragrance.

Soft woody with powdery vibe in the back end the special myrrh and honey bounce off of each other like they are made for each other.. But this is one classy fragrance. It does not smell like an old woman.Defnitely something a man can easily wear. And if he did. it would be one well groomed and dressed man fBut everytime i've worn this fragrance with the right attire. Its nothing but a compliment getter. Not many people wear this so its definitely rare.

For the 17 times i have worn this, i have garnished 8 compliments.

I love wood notes. I have been searching for the right scent with wood predominating for years. I have even tried nearly all the fragrances in the D Squared line. At last I have found fulfillment in Silver Wood. The wood in this fragrance is so well realized in comparison to all I have tried before. I've been on a fragrance journey for a while now and have long since understood that designer fragrances will not suffice although I searched within them so long because the niche fragrances I enjoyed were so expensive. I have been trying Alexandria fragrances now and I am fully on board with so many other reviewers saying this house is creating niche fragrances crafted from quality components that are easily affordable and available. I also need to say that the customer service with Alexandria is awesome.
One last thing: no exaggeration and straight fact; I enjoy Silver Wood far more than the C Dior fragrance that inspired it. I got rid of that fragrance. I'll be getting more Silver Wood.
