I am seriously smitten by this fragrance. Today I wore it, for the second day in a row, on a hike in the forest and it made an already perfect smelling place smell slightly more intensely good, if that makes sense.
That’s a lot of notes in the scent pyramid but they all add up to something that smells like coniferous trees but somehow charred to increase the complexity, smokiness and overall beauty of nature. There’s also some very subtle sweetness and maybe a slight mintiness even. It’s fairly linear, getting maybe a tad sweeter, less smoky and woodsy as it get’s into the drydown.
If you like fir or pine scents, this is a must try. Even if you don’t like pine, but like incense or smoke you should try this. Heck, even if you don’t like any of those notes, you might consider trying it, as it might just change your mind.
One of the best scents of this type I’ve tried.
Edit: I’m kind of obsessed with this and have ordered samples of a bunch of others from this line. It’s completely unlike anything I’ve ever tried. Alchemical is the word that keeps coming to my mind. Very much more than the sum of it’s parts.

Norne is one of my all-time favorites. You know how sometimes you find something that’s perfect and instead of just being content with perfection you go looking for something else like it? At least that’s something that I do; I don’t know why. Anyway, that’s why I tried Wald, but Wald and Norne smell very different to me. Norne is like the distilled essence of an entire coniferous forest–very pure, very intense tree juice. Wald is definitely smokier and in the top notes the maple sap makes it smell like smoked meat to me. The dry down loses the meat smell but it still smells less like a forest to me and more like dried wood (that you plan on using to smoke meat). For me personally, the top notes are a bit much; the dry down is nice though.

In accordance with the reviewers stating the “smokey” quality of this scent: If you are in a forest and you smell smoke- I’d try to get out of the forest!
gky968InsuffBooni – :
I tried this today from a sample.
To start, I can say that the reviwers below have already described the notes very well, and I agree with the phases that this fragrance goes through. It is such a complex perfume, costantly evolving, and it’s very evocative. When wearing it, it’s like walking in an endless and diverse forest, through different environments, and I can smell everything around me.
It goes from very smoky, to sweetish-musky-smoky, to a green-musky-dirt combination, but the smokiness always lingers.
In the drydown it gets very musky.
Sillage is soft to moderate, and it lasts very long.
I like it, it is extremely unique and relaxing, but not so suitable for work in my opinion, it is one of a kind 🙂
Quick Comparison: Fille en Aiguilles (Serge Lutens) – Wald – NORNE (Slumberhouse):
-Fille is the sweetest, warmest, and most feminine. Not too weird, can be worn at work;
-Wald is the smokiest (not incense, actual smoke), neither too sweet nor warm. The most unique, it is harder to wear;
-NORNE is the dark and the coldest, but not as smoky or unique as Wald, easier to wear.
They are all long lasting

Tried my sample today…4 smears on wrist.
On my skin from the minute I put it on till now (7 hrs later) all I get is
smoke..bonfire..more smoke…bonfire..smoke. This continues all the way
through the whole shebang. I’m sad..I really wanted the moss and fir/pine
to come out.. but not on me. Norne by Slumberhouse works better for me.

A Slumberhouse type of scent and price but it is worth it IMO. It’s an oil so it sits close to the skin but is not a skin scent. That thick green color will stain clothes so this needs to go directly on the skin. This is truly the most unique scent that I have ever smelled. It’s coniferous and smoky but not challenging or weird as it has a bit of maple in it to give it a touch of sweetness. It’s earthy,dirty,green and smoky. Cdaleb’s review described it perfectly when he said it’s Fille De Aiguilles meets Lonestar Memories. This is the first that I have tried from the house but am looking forward to eventually sampling the entire lineup. Hopefully in due time they will have a cult Following like Slumberhouse. It may sound cheesy but if I were to name this scent I would call it “Green Smoke” or Coniferious Midnight” as Wald does not really catch the eye but what do I know? If you love the Lutens and the Tauer then this is a must sample.
trotmammoft – :
I had to test this a lot to really come to a solid conclusion about it. It’s very dense and surprisingly complicated despite how straight-forward coniferous it seems at first. Comparisons to Slumberhouse are fairly accurate but in my opinion this lacks the evocative focus of something like Norne or Jeke and seems to have much less emphasis on the drydown.
When first applied, Wald is a total Fir and incense bomb. It’s like a fine aged sweet liquor with all sorts of wizard ingredients infused into it. For all the thick resinous qualities it somehow still retains a unique watery, almost airy vibe.
Shortly after it begins to get a tad animalic in an interestingly furry-salty way. The vetiver plays off the castoreum. Some of the sweetness seems to die down while a newfound smokiness seems to take over. An interesting, Castoreum based smokiness as opposed to straight bonfire fragrances. This phase is very nice, but fairly fleeting.
What Wald finally settles into, at least on my skin, is primarily a salty, tarry vetiver with some undefined herbaceous notes and a subtly medicinal woodiness. It’s quite dirty and raw, to my nose and it smells very natural for better or worse. This drydown lingers for days, and unfortunately I was a little bit bored with it after the 4th or 5th hour. I suppose Wald is more about the journey than the destination, but is the journey worth it when the destination takes up 95% of the experience?
The performance here is fantastic, as one might expect from such a viscous green ooze. The opening is fantastic, but alas the drydown sort of falls apart into slightly uninspiring territory. All in all, a good one, but not worth it to me, certainly seek this out if you like dark green coniferous wizard scents, you might find more to love in the drydown.

this is like sitting in a conifer forest in the dirt. I like it but probably won’t get it. I think it is more manly I guess a lady could pull this off but not me. anyway very well made. the thing I like best is I can smell the soil tincture note.
ekt596speagoessenda – :
Now this is too sharp and very concentrated! it has something from Jeke by Slumberhouse, and few from 100 tweeds by this house. Something smokey, mixed with something greeny, few other citrus, and something stinky but not the kind that is easily accepted, and im sure it’s the extreme dozes of soil tincture with the slight castoreum. The artificial agarwood as well is there so are the fir.
It’s like a slightly Jeke with more burning effect and something more sweet. after all it’s a pass for me.
idr533Bessinepome – :
An absolutely stunning fragrance. This is what I really wanted Norne by Slumberhouse to be (I found that one to be a bit too linear for a full bottle). A grand coniferous forest, sublime and deep, with secret alcoves and haunting hallucinatory vignettes. It starts out with a warm and rich pine scent, needles, cones, and wood all mingling together in lush harmony. Within a few moments I start to smell something heady and animalic, with hints of cannabis and incense smoke. This goes on for a while, then the pines die down giving way to the intoxicating aroma of a forest floor — dry and herbaceous grasses giving way to decaying leaves and dampened soil. The breathtaking middle gives way to a sumptuous drydown where it lingers as a skin scent, haunted by ghosts anointed by an elegant fougere. Longevity and sillage are excellent, I catch whiffs of this throughout the day, intermittently whisking me away to this tangle of branches and needles. I got a sample of this, and a few hours later bought a full bottle. It was that good. This will be in permanent rotation for me, it’s the pine I’ve always dreamed of. Impressive!

امتدت يدى تعبث بالعينات التى اتتنى منذ ايام ضمن مجموعه متنوعه من العينات النيشيه واخترت هذه العينه ذات الرحيق الاخضر الرائق و وعندما وضعت على يدى قطرات من العطر احسست بملمسه الزيتى وقلت فى نفسى اممم زيت عالى التركيز كنت ساقرب يدى لانفي لاختبر الرائحه ولكنى توقفت لان الرائحه هى التى انفجرت فى وجهى وايقنت ان اللون الاخضر لم يأت من فراغ .
كما لو كنت تمشى وسط غابه وحشيه ،،، العطر يبدأ بروائح اخشاب الصنوبر والتنوب العطريه مع الارتيميسيا وطحلب السنديان والفيتيفير ثم تظهر رائحه بخوريه من اللبان العطريه الانترلودى مع الافتتاحيه الخضراء العنيفه ثم ينتهى العطر مع لمسات خفيفه من القرنفل والكاستوريم مع وجود رائحه التربه والتى تذكرنى برائحه الحناء
نوتات كثيره مكتوبه لوصف العطر لكنى اعتقد انها تقوم بادور ثانويه لا تكاد تظهر كرائحه العسل والفواكه واللابدانم .
العطر يبدو بسيطا رغم كل هذه النوتات ويبدو خشنا ذكوريا لا انصح اى انثى بارتدئه ،
العطر ذكرنى بالعديد من العطور المستنده على اخشاب الغابات مثل السرو والصنوبر والتنوب والسنديان واكثر عطر اراه مشابها فى كثير من مراحله وكذلك فى لون رحيقه العطر الرهيب norne لدار سلمبر هاوس الامريكيه وكذلك عطر سيرج لوتنس فى اون اوجوى رغم افتتاحيته السكريه.
هذا العطر لدار نيشيه حديثه تدعى ايفوريوم بروكلين تم انشاءها بامريكا وقدمت خمسه عطور فى سنه ٢٠١٥ وكما نرى فانها بدايه قويه تستخدم مزجا يدويا لاكثر المكونات نقاء وندره لتصنيع توليفاتها
يأتى العطر على هيئه ماء عطر وان كنت اراه اكثر تركيزا فى حجمين الاول ١٥مل بما يعادل ٦٥دولار والثانى ٣٠مل ب ١٢٠ دولار
على الرغم من التوليف الجيد الا ان هذه النوعيه من العطور لاتعجب الذوق العام وقد تبدو مثارا للعجب والاستهجان ولكنها تأسر انوف محبى العطور ، الفوحان والثبات فوق المتوسط

I love this! It’s become my scent this summer, and I think I will have to reorder when the bottle is empty. I can’t add much to cdaleb73110’s review, I pretty much agree with it, and I am terrible at describing notes. But here is the enchanted forest everyone seems to be looking for. It’s a magical scent. I’ve found that the vagabond prince’s enchanted forest has a weird, strident note (what is it, black currant? can’t remember now) that is so sharp, distracting and icky (technical term) that I don’t smell any forest whatsoever. I do love serge luten’s fille en aiguilles. It’s a summer forest, sun warmed dry pine needles, dried fruits, incense…lovely and DRY lol. Wald is more lush and alive. I put it on and love the initial hit I get- very significant christmas tree-ish pine (which I am into)- that not so much as fades, but melts quickly into the well blended story (see promo material on their website, and the review below). Then, as I go about my day, little movements will send seriously beautiful wafts of this gorgeous scent to my nose and I am struck by “oh! what is that luscious smell? it’s me!” It’s not a scent so much as something that puts you in a beautiful, magical place, at least on one plane of your existence. The scent comes in a screw top bottle, and you also get a glass stopper-topped bottle. Really pretty, and handy for travel. Leave some of the oil in the screw top bottle, and some on your dresser lookin’ hip and intriguing.

Well here is my feeble attempt at describing this fragrance. After a second wearing here it goes. The liquid is quite thick, oily and true green. Immediately you pick up the pines, junipers, conifers, firs, etc. The maple syrup is unmistakable. Moments later up comes the smoke, frankincense and birch tar. This all starts smoldering creating a bonfire effect. This is all within the first 5 minutes and wafting quite strongly.
After sometime the artemisia finally comes out of hiding. Smells literally like you have taken a leaf and crushed it with your fingers. Pungent but herbal and a tad sweet. The animal hide comes forth. Rough and raw leather. I keep thinking I get a spicy clove now and again. There are points of this fragrance that briefly reminded me of a hint of marijuana Or it just could have been my neighbor. Ha ha. You can sense raw vetiver.
Now after an hour or so it is calming down and quite reminds me of the whole neighborhood mowing their lawn while still a tad dewy. The evergreen resins, smoke and syrup is still present but quite closer to a skin scent.
After 4 hours I still detect it as a skin scent. I had a quick flashback of the original polo with incense. The quality is amazing. This was with a very small dab to my wrist and pressing other wrist together. I imagine one to two full dabs with the bottle stopper on some pulse points and WOW, it would be strong.
There you have it. I do admit when I get to moving around the oil has no problems coming back to life on my skin. Kind of a Fille de Aiguilles meets Lonestar Memories. Excellent.
