Bloody Wood

Bloody Wood

A grand‑cru red‑wine fantasy where cherry and raspberry bleed into oak and sandalwood, balancing boozy fruit, soft florals, and dry tannic woods in a dark, ruby‑hued trail.

Scent Development and Character

A wine‑soaked woody perfume that opens with the tart, slightly metallic brightness of wine over violet and rose nuances, then deepens into a pulpy cherry‑raspberry accord before resting in warm oak and sandalwood that recall casks in a dim cellar. The overall impression is boozy, fruity, and gently floral, with a dry, tannic woodiness that keeps the sweetness in check.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Bloody Wood wears as a distinctive, atmospheric wine‑woody fragrance with noticeable presence but controlled sweetness, making it ideal for evening wear, gallery visits, or contemplative autumn and winter days. Two to four sprays create a clear aura without becoming cloying; on warmer days, a lighter application highlights the tart wine and floral facets, while cooler weather emphasizes the cherry, raspberry and oak barrel warmth. Best suited to autumn and winter, when its boozy wine, cherry‑raspberry and oak‑barrel warmth feel comforting and atmospheric; in spring it can work for evenings, while in high summer it may be too dense except in cool indoor settings. Sillage: above moderate, forming a noticeable but not overpowering aura; the wine and red‑fruit accords project vividly in the first few hours before settling closer to the skin as dry woods and soft florals dominate. Longevity: generally medium‑long, around 7–9 hours on skin, with the wine and cherry‑raspberry heart persisting well before softening into a smoother oak–sandalwood trail.
