King of Wood by Milkman

December 17, 2022Cologne#Australia, #Cologne, #Favorite, #Fragrance

Trying out the King of Wood eau de parfum by Milkman.

SPOILER ALERT: Loved it! And it’s a perfect winter fragrance IMO

So what are we looking at?

  • TOP: Bay leaves, Cinnamon leaves
  • MIDDLE: Oak, Patchouli, Vanilla
  • BASE: Sandalwood, Cedar, Smoke

To my nose the cinnamon is what comes out first and gently caresses everything else.  I wouldn’t say that this is cinnamon fragrance, but it is a key player.  FYI – I initially assumed that it was clove.

From there things get wrapped in a velvety embrace of sweet vanilla and sandalwood.  At the tail end of it all is the wood finale.

This is a comforting arrangement.  It brings memories of warn cinnamon apple drinks that we would have to warm up after some ice skating.  Beyond that there is gentle familiarity to it.  A delicious sense of peace and serenity of a weekend spent at the family cabin in the woods.

It’s unpretentious, but classy, it’s uncomplicated, but deep.

 

For my nose, it’s a winner.  When I read the notes, I expected something woody and sweet, but the results are more than that.  I recognize the notes, but once crafted together it becomes more of a state of mind than just an arrangement.

As this beauty was created in Australia, I am sure that it might trigger completely different memories there, but I am sure that we all end up in a similar peaceful destination when wearing King of Wood.

Projection is good, but this is not a “in your face” thing.  My 2-3 sprays weren’t enough to tell the neighborhood that I was on the move.

As this is an eau de parfum, it has a higher concentration of fragrance (20%) and that gives a clearer fragrance that also has some staying power.  Those 2-3 sprays gave me 4-7 hours.

TAKEAWAY

A vanilla-wood arrangement that heads to new directions while being familiar and comfortable.

NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING

Delivered to Canada from Australia in 7 days.  AMAZING!!!  Parcels coming from the US to Canada take 10-14 days.  Go figure?!
