Driftwood
by Wild Spirit
Driftwood by Wild Spirit is a light, fresh, and marine-leaning fragrance that evokes cool coastal air, crisp citrus, and aromatic notes reminiscent of a Pacific Northwest beach. It features prominent sea salt, lemon, mandarin orange, and spicy mint, blended with soft floral accents and aromatic woodiness. The scent is described as clean, unisex, and highly linear—like the first breath of sea spray on an overcast morning. Some appreciate its emotional depth and subtle complexity, while others find it underwhelming or overly watery, especially when it dries down to its salty marine base. Its performance is modest, lasting moderate time and projecting an intimate to moderate sillage, making it best suited for daytime wear in spring or summer. It's not a bold or long-lasting fragrance, nor a dramatic one—its charm lies in its simplicity and freshness.
