Description
DSQUARED² She Wood arrived on the market in September 2008, after the very successful edition for men, He Wood, presented last season.
She Wood was created in cooperation with perfumer Daphne Bugey, and is composed of three accords: light, intensive and woody ones.
The creation was started from the base of the perfume for men and was shaped by adding notes and aromas of a fragrance for women. This is not a classic girly perfume, but can be categorized as a unisex. The fragrance aims at women who like using perfumes for men.
The top notes incorporate lemon, neroli and jasmine, the heart hides violet, heliotrope and musk, while the base is composed of cedar, vetiver and amber.
The perfume is available as 30, 50 i 100ml edp.
zaNOZA – :
A woody green perfume. Overall it’s fresh/light, not sweet. It’s nice and it kind of reminds me of the modern powdery lipstick smell.
alexisfresk – :
It is a nice, rare particular scent, although is very powdery and I dont feel it goes well with me. The cozzy wood, for me should not go with citrus notes.
baldyr – :
This smells spot on exactly like Marc Jabobs Daisy
Demon13011987 – :
I agree with Dinka. It just doesn’t last as long on me. I douse myself with it, and it fades quickly, but it really is one of my all time favourites! I’ll keep spraying…. It’s perfect. It reminds me if you mixed Anais Anais with Hot Couture little…. And softened it with something masculine, yet powdery.
jon1997 – :
This is one of those perfums you can’t buy safely and give as a gift to your friend. It won’t be to anyone’s liking.
Dsquared2 She Woods is an ode to the violet played on some cold and masculine note. I liked it. You might not.
artem32r – :
Ardenbeauty (!) (“wax-y”, aquatic lotus and lilac note) + citruses + oregano.
doger13 – :
Very powdery. Reminds me of eating parma violets and drinking lemonade in the grass.
Its slighty green violet leaves and a hesperidic touch upon opening before it’s overwhelmed by violety powderiness. Unfortunately, I got no wood from it or any of that aquatic, foresty vibe I was hoping for.
A nice powder skin scent for those who like that though.
gfif84 – :
As far as subtle scents go, I’m really enjoying DSQUARED²’s She Wood. I always had a sneaking suspicion that I would like this scent, but it took me quite some time to get around to ordering a sample as this brand is not easy to come by in Australia.
DSQUARED²’s She Wood is a beautiful dusty violet, neroli, musk and cedar scent. I would describe this fragrance as a ‘skin scent’; very soothing and inoffensive. It’s the kind of fragrance you would happily wear to the office, to bed or to soothe your nerves.
Some may find that this fragrance smells of ‘nothing’, but that’s exactly what I love most about it. My collection consists of so many bold, heavy and commanding scents, that it’s nice to change it up once in a while and don a fragrance that moulds beautifully with my own chemistry. Subtlety is key.
Fragrances in a similar category include Donna Karan’s Cashmere Mist, Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely and Jennifer Aniston’s Lolavie. If you like any of the aforementioned fragrances, you’ll be sure to like DSQUARED²’s She Wood.
Thankfully DSQUARED²’s She Wood is a relatively inexpensive buy and is still easy to source online. Although this fragrance suits most seasons, I would highly recommend wearing this fragrance during Autumn as it has a beautiful cozy vibe.

does anybody know a similar scent with more sillage? i love the violets in this one but on me it doesn’t last very long and i usually prefer much stronger fragrances.
wmkoper – :
Mmhmmm, another successful blind buy. I’m really enjoying this, on me it smells just like Arrogance Poudre with a mist of citrus. Powder, wood, citrus, very safe and innofensive
nazarlvl – :
Love She Wood!
This is long-lasting: I put it on yesterday and still smell it today.
After I got Eau de Gucci II & loved it, I wanted to find a perfume with even more cedar, but one that did not smell masculine. She Wood fits that, very soft but feminine and noticeable.
Cedar from the start and throughout, and then violets and lemon.
raimasha – :
Powdery violets with a huge dose of soft vetiver.
This reminded me of l’Artisan’s Verte Violette until the vetiver peeked its head out in the drydown.
Very, very nice!!!
lexa673 – :
I’m curious if it smells similar to Lush’s Big Shampoo? There’s no violet in Big’s ingredients but I can swear I smell it! And I’m thinking of blind buying this if they ressemble each other..
Deniksfo – :
She Wood is a strong watery violet, with a bit of citrus and a musky ceder base. I agree that it is similar to Trussardi Jeans. The name of this scent is a little off putting because you expect strong woods but for me anyway the violet and heliotrope are the strongest notes here. This is a very purple floral scent. Also more fresh/aquatic. I like it because I enjoy the notes but it is quite similar to several other scents I already have. I really wish the woods were as strong for me as they are for other reviewers. The silage is pretty decent, I will update later on longevity.
Viksifa – :
On the 1st spritz I thought “wow” this feels to heavy and bitter woody to suit me buuuut…after a few more sniffs and several seconds I changed my mind, hmm…quite interesting, hmm, quite nice, seems to get even some subtle sweetness. I confess I am not very aware of how should or do violets smell but I do know that I like cedar in general and the cedar I feel here although there is quite some distance from the cedre bleu yves rocher- the first cedar perfume to have and cherish. To sum up, this perfume is very charming and charismatic even, especially for those who like frags that hit the unisex border
replicae26523 – :
I sampled this on three different occasions before coming to any kind of decision on it.
I definitely get a little bit of lemon and a lot of violet and neroli. The cedar is light on me.
After about an hour the heliotrope and musk come out and it moves from interesting soft but not too femme floral towards clean detergent smell, but never a scent so muddied I would call it soapy.
It didn’t last very long after that. Definitely interesting and probably awesome on the right person, but not me.
feu258speagoessenda – :
Луда съм по този парфюм.Получих го при размяна и бе любов от първи мирис,толкова свеж,толкова пресен,така уникален и красив.Пренасям се в зелена гора и море.Много го обичам! Сега си поръчах и Golden,и скоро ще мога да го коментирам и него:) Щастлива съм с този аромат,постоянно душа обратното на лакътя си
sergey.subbotin1963 – :
A soft, woody aquatic that reminds me so much of Indigo L’eau par Kenzo. If you want to try Kenzo, She Wood will fit the bill. I think it would be good for a subtle intro into a room, office, first date, anywhere you want to be noticed but without overwhelming or offending. Perfecto.
BTW the ad reminds me of Acqua di Gioa, except the model is partially submerged face-up.
Dedabrara – :
I blind bought it at Douglas the other day. I like perfumes with masculine vibe and the first impression was very nice. Woody, cosy, pleasant…. But after a while it started to remind me of Puma Flowing (go figure!) I used to have as a teenager and hated it. Something in the middle/base notes gives me a terrible headache and I can’t stand it.
TToRR92 – :
She Wood is a soft, wooden floral that develops into an aquatic. I received this one in a swap, and I was immediately surprised with how much it resembles Ellen Tracy’s Bronze in the opening with the woody floral. Ellen Tracy is warmer and spicier, while She Wood tends towards a light, pale aquatic.
There is a bit of powder to it, but it mostly remains a fresh, pretty, woody violet that eventually becomes a softer aquatic. I usually hate aquatic scents, but I find this one to be elegant and wearable. It is so soft that I could see this being a year-round, daily-wear fragrance.
killer_2580888 – :
beautiful fragrance. at first I was a little disappointed as I was expecting it to be more similar to the men’s Wood from DSquared, which I love, I was hoping for more ”forest” feel.. But over time, this really grew on me. Violets are the most prominent but in no way it is a one dimensional sweet or floral perfume. The woods are there! To me it is a ”happy” feminine smell. And very unique. If you somewhat like this but you are unsure and want to go more unisex, go with She Wood Velvet Forest.
Lessie22 – :
LOVE this warm, jasmine-cedar smell with a light, almost aquatic freshness. Very sexy – good for night or a brisk fall day. Unfortunately lost my bottle…
sania2603 – :
Have tried the sample I have of this over the last couple of days, and while I don’t actively dislike it, neither do I particularly like it.
Above all, it seems rather weaker than I was expecting – a watered down version of a man’s cologne with a bit of florally violet added to make it a ‘female’ version.
The two parts don’t really do anything synergistic in my opinion, and all up I am left vaguely disappointed – perhaps it was the name leading me to expect a good blast of exotic wood, when all that is delivered is a distant damp woodland. Not going on the ‘to buy’ list, sadly.
вилья – :
It is a lovely violet woodsy scent. The first 10 minutes on my skin is merely violets, intese, reminds me of violet candies, after the blast settles in a cleaner woody cedar scent. I love it !
deleBride – :
I think the name suits this fragrance perfectly! The first few seconds I got a pretty strong male cologne type scent, but it subsided very quickly and I was left with the most perfect interpretation of a spring forest. I can definately detect the violet and it’s very natural smelling, not overpowering or cloyingly sweet. The cedar and vetiever give it woody and earthy tone. When I smell this perfume it brings me back to my childhood, trecking through the woods with my grandparents. I can smell the fresh spring flowers, the strong and dry scent of tree bark and the slight earthly dampness after rain. Truly a unique scent!
mmj524Negeltzex – :
Very strong wood, at first this is more like a male cologne.
But it slides into a lovely, fresh, unisex scent. This is bittersweet slightly burnt wood, walking in a forest, a crisp autumn morning.
I would love wearing this in fall/winter.
ural1975 – :
Wet violets after rain,sleepy early morning.wood ,cold leaves ,some very delicate sweetness.and with all of that it very confident fragrance .
I there is also some unisex accord -lemon maybe?
Love it very much .
hiSlejereurry – :
Dsquared She Wood is a quite straight-forward woody floral scent, yet it has that little something that makes it interesting.
The opening is quite fresh and reminiscent of a men’s perfume, with its green neroli and peppery vetiver. I don’t mind that at all, as the powdery violet emerges to make things dryer and woodier. Unassumingly addictive and obvious violet, warm and cold at the same time. I can totally relate to the woody aquatic description.
The dry down is for the most part a cosy fluffy musk with rosy undertones, even though no rose is mentioned in the notes. It reminds me a bit of the dry down Roses de Chloe, but a lot less soapy.
Overall a likable, well-defined and non-linear scent, which stays cosy, yet unusual. For me it suits all seasons, minus the summer. Quite long lasting, while projection is pleasing. A little goes a long way with this one. A new favourite, which has been getting compliments almost every day.
s151064 – :
A colleague was wearing this today and the most luxurious cosmetics smell was billowing around her. So, smelling it from a bit of distance is, for me, far far better than wearing it!
zermoffergy – :
This isn’t sharp at all. It’s a pretty, soft and powdery violet and ISO E concoction. Perfect for the office or school. Lovely, understated, inoffensive.
tral – :
It’s amazing. Cold and fresh yet cozy.
For me it’s perfect fragrance for the beginning of the fall, beginning of the school year.
Itself it’s like a new journey, through the woods, to the unknown. Exciting and inspiring.
I would say it isn’t very much feminine, but rather unisex.
Anyway – great.
PS: It smells like Guerlain Meteorites powder 😀
atw536Negeltzex – :
She Wood is a beautiful, well rounded perfume.. to my mind, it’s one of the so called new chypres, like Narciso For Her. It evolves you in a cozy aromatic cocoon, creates ambiance around you. Besides violets and musk, I can smell roses and cumin here, strange! Reminds me a little bit of Le Labo Rose 31, which i love too.
oleg2877 – :
I bought it after testing at Sasa. Love all the woody woody smell. I feel like walking along the forest which full of pines, Fresh and clean. Good that this one long-lasting on my skin. My hubby said I am smell like plywood, anyway.. I love the perfume.
red1941 – :
Violet, heliotrope, musk, something making this somewhat aquatic. It’s quite abstract atually, a bit like concentrated fabric softener. I find charming in a caual way, and would have liked to be woodier.
UPDATE: I also get some faint spiciness in the beginning. This could be unisex, too, IMO.
pashkovss – :
I am in love with this scent! I wandered into the store asking the girl for a woody, solemn, resiny, incense like scent. She blinked quite a few times and sprayed Sunflowers on me. I sighed and told her I would rather scavenge the shelves by myself.
Hidden way in the low regions I discovered this beautiful bottle of She Wood. It is all I asked for, and more. It has the wood and the solemnity but it also has incredible warmth and comfort. Like a pink blanket inviting me to ly down in a sunny forest.
I regret that silage and longevity are so low, because I would love to infuse everyone around me with this.
happyhippo – :
This is all about the violets to me. Lovely sweet violets. That makes it very girly, almost childishly innocent and pure. There’s a quote that popped up in my mind immediately:
“Gaston was not only a fierce lover, with endless wisdom and imagination, but he was also, perhaps, the first man in the history of the species who had made an emergency landing and had come close to killing himself and his sweetheart simply to make love in a field of violets.”
― Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude
I like the perfume, it’s one of those happy scents that bring nothing but brightness into your day.
getmenime – :
I guess that a perfume smells really differently when applied in different seasons and temperatures. She Wood was a blind buy in March when the temperature was still quite cold in Canada. The first spray diffused a strong and sharp green grass-like scent, which ruled over the other notes. The violet came along about half an hour later as salty. I was seriously disappointed in my first blind buy. However, when I used it again on this unexpectedly warm day in April, the smell was delightful. I could smell an aromatic violet-not too powdery and not sweet yet fresh and slightly creamy-, and a warm cedar. It is not THAT woody; it is just lovely. Besides, the concept of this perfume and the design of its bottle won me over for recreating an inviting environment of a Canadian forest.
Potrochitel – :
Pencil shavings
Wonderful perfume, woddy and fresh with the pencil shaving vibe quite intense. I would categorize this almost like Paul Smith’s Intense and Alexander McQueens Queen. I could wear this all year round, especially during spring and summer. Longevity is decent and sillage medium. There is a hidden class in this perfume, though the price is quite high. Overall happy with my choise.
lollord – :
The first impression was amazing – it felt like “that perfect fragrance i’ve been searching for the whole time”. Very unusual, with an attitude. After 10 minutes it started to smell of powder too much, which is not my favorite note. But still, this fragrance seems very fascinating, I’d like to try other Woods.
VasyV – :
I so love this fragrance
I was in perfume store in milan 6 years ago and i smelled this from far i went to the stand and tried it, i bought it immediately.
i bought It again and again
Powdery, violet,woode fresh ..
It is very particular fragrance.. but any time i wear it i receive compliments
It last really good, it doesn change later and this is great! Good for summer when you want feel fresh all day
My summer perfume
Teymur71 – :
Did they change the formula? I remember having it a few years ago when it smelled almost identical to the male version and back then I found it awesome. Because it had this fresh “wet-wood”-feeling, an aquatic quality and was so natural with a hint of violet powderiness.
Now I bought it again and I can almost only smell violets. Reminds me of Blumarine Bellissima Acqua di Primavera a lot… I still like it, but it’s not the same to me anymore. It is such a shame. Maybe I’ll just stick to the male version.
forwardd – :
Very weird fragrance. I really didn’t like the top notes at all. But when the violet came along, I thought it’s quite nice.
I really really like the violet, but that’s pretty much it.
There’s also a little bit cedar, that I can smell, but nothing spectacular.
I think the whole thing is a little too synthetic. Well, I know that all perfumes are, but they don’t have to smell like that.
hyl457bedyWelty – :
Not sure if my skin has changed, or just my nose, but now I detect more cedar than I used to. It has a slightly androgynous vibe lurking under the gentle flowery violets.
I see it fitting for an “outdoorsy”, nature loving kind of woman.
If anyone is interested it, I have it for swap in the UK.
Gann – :
I am not getting the unisex vibe here at all. I guess with unisex I think of spice or patchouili but this is more of a powdery floral in my book. I can detect slight similarities to Ellen Tracy Bronze but not a dead ringer at all – this is different in it’s own right. Definitely a scent that is up my alley in soft clean safe and gentle notes. If your looking for a power house fragrance then pass on She Wood, but if your looking for something completely different, clean, soft with a powdery floral then this one might be for you. Silage mild and I will report later on the longevity.
Quality 10
Silage 5
Uniqueness 8
velavex – :
Well this is…not at all what I was expecting. Not in a bad way, just different. I’m wearing it now as I just received it in the mail. I surely look like a fool, sitting behind my desk sniffing the crook of my elbow.
I suppose I expected a burst of woody forest upon first spray, but what I got was the heavy greenery of the cedar tree instead of cedar wood. And there’s loads of violet flower, without a doubt. It ultimately ends up smelling like a baby powdered pine tree. Again, not bad, just different.
Unique. I think I might be a fan.
I admit, it’s a bit screechy at first opening, but it does soften a little. I am worried I’m going to get a headache.
I don’t get a unisex from this at all, it seems very feminine to me, however anyone can wear whatever makes them happy. 🙂
It seems very fresh and clean smelling. Perfect for spring, early Summer or summer night.
I’ll report back after I’ve used for a couple days.
Update: I hate to say this, but it’s a bit too sharp and screechy for me. It never really dries down into anything woody, only cedar greenery and violet. I like it, but the violet is a bit too much. I’ll revisit when it’s cooler. It’s already in the upper 80s here in Texas. Maybe the heat is making it sharper on me.
Update 5.19.14: I like it a lot more today. After getting over my original expectation, I’ve come to realize it’s quite nice. It seems to be more pleasing when sprayed on clothing (a no no, I know). The bitterness just isn’t there on my clothing as it is on my skin.
alex4547 – :
This fragrance was an impulse buy for me, tested it and 3 minutes later I was buying it partly due to how charmed my husband was.
This scent isn’t girly girly but unisex it is not. It starts with a woody explosion but the heart is floral and powdery. It’s a little too powdery for my tastes by the end of it but I’m satisfied nontheless. I don’t get any citrus or jasmine notes like the pyramid says.
I wish it’d last a bit longer though.
Anet – :
I’m really confused about this fragrance. I just can’t decide what I think. One minute I like it and then I’m not sure. I get the woods but why does it smell fruity on me?? I don’t smell any lemon or cedar.
bashkir – :
Undoubtedly a violet scent, but fresh, tangy, woodsy, and honestly quite peppery instead of a powdered candy. I quite like it! It smells like a feminine fragrance but has a masculine edge to it, which I appreciate in a scent. This would be ideal for spring or fall. I can see myself really enjoying it! And you really can’t beat that price. The longevity isn’t great but I don’t need a sillage bomb right now anyway. If I use up my sample I’ll be buying a full bottle!
slavash – :
First impressions:
Violet
Wet grass
Sunshine
The first warm day of spring
A touch of powder
Feminine
drdee77 – :
Definetly unisex. Well, if you like more woody green perfumes then this one is for you. I quite like it even though I’m not the biggest fan of unisex or very fresh fragrances. After some time it turns into more powdery violet cedar scent which is much nicer than the opening. Likeable.
Herihog – :
I like this fragrance quite a bit, but I’m afraid it doesn’t have enough umph for my liking. Sits way too close to the skin. I like to know I’m wearing something to bother.
wiktor1970 – :
Clean woody-powdery-fruity, all season scent, just wish it lasted longer. It’s one of my favorites, but it’s overpriced.
kalina71389 – :
I bought this perfume about a year ago purely on a whim: woody aquatic group and a sophisticated flagon put a spell on me. My first impression was perplexing: I would never call this fragrance aquatic. There are some woodsy notes – that’s true. Quite powdery to me. However, today I gave it another try. I loved the dry-down. I’m not totally in love with it, but I do like it.
JommaryAdanda – :
I’ve been eyeing this EDP forever – it always intrigued me, being quite black peppery to my nose, almost unisex, plus the beautiful bottle! For some reason I have never tested it on my own skin until I actually bought it couple of days ago.
I have to say that the first impression was slightly negative – it didn’t smell anything like I remembered it from just sniffing the scent on a testing paper. Floral notes quite overpowering anything else, reminded me of a lilac EDT I used to use on high school – loved it, but you understand that I am going for something different now that I am ten years older.
However… as the day progressed, I bussed to my gym, worked out, shopped a bit and then it hit me – the scent I was actually hoping for! Very spicy, slightly woody with violet undertones. I kept sniffing my own wrists, totally in love with it. So I guess the moral is not to trust the first impression, although that is something you all know by now I bet.
On me it smells remarkably like He Wood Rocky Mountain, a fragnance my ex boyfriend bought because I totally loved its unique spiciness. I can actually hardly tell what is the difference between the two (apart from the starting floral explosion!) , because there definitely is one, I just can’t quite put my finger on it.
Bottom line : a female fragrance quite unlike any other I know, autumny and warm. A great accessory to your favourite warm winter coat.
Fatalord – :
I dont like how it smells when i put it on but when it dries down its just clean and fresh woody smell. I prefer spicy/woody/leathery scents and even tho i didnt like this one when i first smelled it somehow still had faith in it and was thinking it will be better after drying. I bought it without waiting and by the time i got home from the shop i was completely in love with it. Its just a fresh smell not heavy or overpowering. It doesnt last too long unfortunately.
pavel2202 – :
I bought a sample of this because of all the overwhelmingly positive reviews, only to be mislead by them:-( I seriously don’t know what all the raving is about with this fragrance. To me, I feel it lacks character. Nothing but sour violets. Definitely not something you can’t wait to put on. Masculine to me and more like “She Wouldn’t” XD
lzn689elipseskism – :
What a HUGE disappointment!!! I was unsure of the strength of the perfume, so I only did moderate spritzes down my arms the first time. I could barely smell anything, so I reapplied the sprays and I got the wonderful scent of violets. But what I truly wanted was the wood!
It is now 2 hours later and the scent is nearly gone. I only got the brief violet and no development after that. I must be one of the poor folks who cannot smell iso-e or whatever the magic ingredient is called. But why can’t I smell lemon, the musk, and most importantly, the woods??
As I scrolled through the description once again, I saw that Ellen Tracy’s Bronze is on the “smells like” list. AHA! I couldn’t smell that one either!!! It was even a greater disappointment than SheWOOD. So, is iso-e the only common denominator?
kornet – :
Wet wood with a sweet/sour tone – this is how She Wood smells to me. Like the smell of an old cedar forest that has been wet for a long time, so the ground has turned into a swamp. Where the humidity intensifies the smells of wood, soil and the sweet, but also sharp smelling, flowers, and adds a certain sourness.
Wearing this fragrance, I think it smells like my clothes (or I) have been left out in a wet cabin in that forest for a long time. I would be selective about where to wear She Wood. I think I would neither use it at a (normal) office nor on a night out. I think it is important to be in the right mood and match the clothing to the atmosphere of this fragrance, or else the smell can easily seem “out of context”, if that makes sense..
Update & conclusion:
I can’t really make my mind up about the scent… It is somehow intriguing – but I have the feeling that it is not my own fragrance that I am wearing, and like I am pretending to be somebody I’m not. I think violet may not be “my” note – it is too sweet’n’sour and powdery for me – like this fragrance is.
august110th – :
So pretty! First impression is of citrus and jasmine, but it fades away quickly to a heart of violets. Not sugared violets, but more like a true violet flower. As it develops, it feels as though the violets are surrounded by cedar and a touch of amber. I do love a nice woody smell and this delivers. It won’t be replacing Sensuous anytime soon, especially as Sensuous is delicious sandalwood and to my nose, there is no sandalwood here. Still, a gorgeous scent. It does tend to fade quickly, but I imagine this would be better for work, etc.
vit55555 – :
I have tested it today… it reminds me spicy chinese food… I can’t remember exactly what it is…
but I don’t agreed that It’s distinctive or unique… not femenine… very alien…
not macthing my imagination… I had thought this is very powdery and elegant….
4un – :
All I can smell is alcohol..
serg555557 – :
A softly subtle woodsy fragrance, so feminine but not sweet. I wouldn’t call it aquatic at all. It’s warm and inviting, I find it quite beautiful. I’ve never taken much note of violets before and I’m impressed.
My favorite wood scent until now has been Estee Lauder Sensuous, but She Wood is so much more affordable and I feel more wearable as it suits my personality better. Going onto my wanted list.
Sillage is soft but has lasted 8 hours on me.
monah1960 – :
I had this perfume several years ago , this is beauty scent with iso e super (as well he wood man also contain this synthetic molecule) . Very feminine. An architecture of the scent well done . There is nothing innovatuve materials .
It is long lasting , but dont expect trail .
I dont plan repurchase it , I decided to buy Feminite du Bois Serge Lutens because in Serge Lutens much more concentration of iso e super which give an more complicated effect .

min_serega – :
Very true to nature, not too sweet violet with wood backing it up. Only drawback is it does not last long on me — two hours or so. Amazingly natural violet scent though, not too sugared.
Olga777 – :
Such a lovely scent, too bad it doesn’t last very long, nevertheless it’s great.
ERTU – :
Violets!!!! The first impression is of candied violets, prettily displayed. A little powdery and old-style, very nicely done.
Strangely I didn’t get the citrus at all the first time I tried, but when I sprayed this again in the same place on my arm, about an hour later, the citrus was very prominent and the violet less so.
Either way this dries down to a soft, slightly powdery, still violet, extremely feminine scent, a little woody and altogether charming.
It’s interesting that another poster sees this as unisex – to me it’s ultra-femme.
artbrag – :
I love this! I got it from a friend who didn´t like one of the notes in it, probably the cedar. It is woodsy and violets is layered over it in a very nice way. I´m thinking of a swedish candy called violtablett. But it´s not a perfume that makes you feel imature or think of sweet candy. The wood in it makes it quite grown up and not girly at all.
I asked my husband what he thought of it, I find it intresting to see what he thinks because he doesn´t know the notes to begin with. “Hmm, very flowery. And strong/sharp. It´s okey.” As you can see, he is not very articulate when it comes to describing perfumes… Hum, wierd because I think it´s kind of soft and can smell the violets but no lemon. Well, I love it anyway and will wear it for me! 🙂
Edit. I have noticed that the scent that lingers on the sweater a day after I used this psrfume only smells of cedarwood and no violets, a bit sad!
ejvsrzulbu – :
A blind buy, it is expensive, but I enjoyed the scent a lot. I am satisfied. However, my concept of a forest smell is a little diferente…
taron80 – :
Very pretty composition. Opens with powdered violet, rounds out with lots of sandalwood and citrus. Fresh and powdery at the same time. Dries down to a soft, woody glow.
konst2004 – :
I was honestly hoping She Wood would lean a bit more masculine. Not to say it’s super feminine, but it’s softer and sweeter than I expected.
Mainly it’s powdery violets & heliotrope, neroli, musk and lemon. Soft and woody. Rather fresh smelling.
In colder weather I get a lot more cedar + violet. Not so much of the lemon or neroli.
It’s a “love” in cold weather. A “like” in warm weather.
It’s the fragrance equivalent of a white cotton t-shirt, and that’s not a bad thing. Otherwise 80% of us wouldn’t own white cotton t-shirts.
From a purely aesthetic standpoint, the bottle is very stylish.
Arudakovskiy – :
This scent is really nice and fresh. I think the name suits the scent really well; smells woody in a feminine way. I wish this was stronger, too light for me.
hitman42 – :
For many years, I’ve been allergic to perfume or cologne. I was happy to find that I actually became immune to alcohol sensitivity over the years. So I looked for my very first perfume. After testing so many, I’m glad I found She Wood. This blends well with my skin chemistry and doesn’t give me a headache. It starts out woody for me and then becomes powdery. I love inhaling the scent deeply since it reminds me of being on vacation…in a cottage surrounded by nature, a light sea breeze…nestled under the shade of a tree. I can’t help reapplying again later in the day. Surprisingly, this is only one in a few scents that don’t turn sour on my skin after long term wear. I wish I bought a bigger bottle…
