About Dark Wood
Dark Wood by Jean Rish: A Spicy Woody Signature
Dark Wood, released in 2016 by Jean Rish, is a woody spicy fragrance for men. It blends a bright, peppery opening with a deep, leathery base.
The scent opens with black pepper, bergamot, saffron, and nutmeg, creating a fresh yet piquant start. The heart features gurjum balsam, cedar, labdanum, and iris, lending a resinous and slightly powdery texture. The base of sandalwood, patchouli, oud wood, and leather forms a dark, warm, and long-lasting trail. Woody, warm spicy, leather, and a hint of iris define the overall character. While the perfumers remain unnamed, the composition demonstrates skillful balance. With a rating of 4.75 out of 5, wearers praise its versatility and distinctive profile.
Men who enjoy woody, spicy fragrances with a leathery edge, especially for fall and winter evenings or formal occasions.
