Woody
by Rasasi
Woody by Rasasi presents a dry, earthy vetiver-centered scent with prominent patchouli and cedar notes, accented by a crisp citrus opening of grapefruit and tangerine, and a subtle hint of oud and sandalwood in the base. The fragrance evolves into a quietly grounding, personal aroma that feels like damp forest wood after rain—cool, earthy, and intimate. While some appreciate its authenticity and resemblance to Encre Noir and Grey Vetiver, others criticize its weak projection and moderate longevity, noting it fades quickly on the skin. It suits those seeking a lightweight, moody wood scent for warm weather, particularly during daytime wear, and works well for layering with richer, bolder fragrances.
Pros
- +Strong earthy and vetiver presence with a natural, organic feel
- +Intimate, skin-scent performance suits quiet and personal wear
- +Good compatibility with other fragrances, especially tobacco or oud-based scents
Cons
- −Weak sillage and projection, making it largely undetectable beyond close range
- −Moderate longevity, with noticeable fading within two to three hours
- −Underwhelming performance despite favorable scent profile, especially for price point
