  1. Hi Ashley, I hope you feel better soon 💐
    I absolutely love your videos, your very refined taste and your aesthetics in general. Your choices for this list are stunning, I’m going to try Tam Dao, sounds divine; One of my all time woody fragrances is Dsquared2 She Wood, unfortunately it’s now discontinued, I’m still looking for one similar to it.
    Have a lovely day! I’m looking forward to your next video 🌷💖😊

  2. Just wanted to say thank you for your time. You are a breath of fresh air in fragcomm as it is so nice to have someone truly knowledgeable and experienced in the field of perfumery. I hope you continue to prosper and that life treats you well.

  3. Great Ashley… this is what I've been wanting all along but didn't know it – . the 'Perfection Series '. Perfect way to build a wardrobe of perfumes cherry picked by category ! and as always respect your industry knowledge and preferences in scents. Looking forward to more of the perfection series… and the knowledge you impart . Clear confident communication as opposed to cloudy descriptions on other channels

  4. I would have added Creed Royal Oud for the cedar note, and the earthy rootiness the angelica gives it. If one other would have to be removed to make way for it I would take out Tom Ford Oud Wood.

    I've heard Tam Dao referred to as the first word and the last word in woody fragrances. Its very good but does not perform well. Frederic Malle French Lover is pretty good too.

  5. I also really like sandalwood. To me, the most genuine scent of this wood is found in Acqua di Parma's SANDALO. A long-lasting fragrance that sorounds you with a solomn, religious aura. I associate the scent with oriental temples.

  6. I love Tam Dao. I got the chance to smell it about 2 weeks ago.

    I bought a sample of Black Afgano and wore it a few times. It’s too heavy for me, and because it’s so strong it’s something you’d better love because you’re stuck with it until you shower again 😅. Duro is probably more my style in the Nasomatto range.

  7. Hi Ashley! So happy to see you upload a video again! Hope you’re getting better soon!

    The only fragrance with guaiac wood that I’ve came across is only the Gaiac 10 by Le Labo. It’s gorgeous, but unfortunately too expensive and the projection is kind weak on me..
    Is there any other guaiac perfume that you’ll recommend?

  8. Good video Ashley. Love Oud Wood, but unfortunatley pulls a disappearing act on me after 1 hour or so. Have to try Wonderwood from this list. Can't wait for the summer list.!

  9. Hi Ashley – sorry to hear you're not feeling too well, but if you'd like a friendly piece of advice from someone who was laid low with a certain 'bug' – get yourself water soluble vitamin C (1000mg) and take it on the hour every hour. It sounds extreme, but it does help your immune system to counter-act whatever 'bug' you have within your system. You'll know when your body has topped up with vitamin C, as it will start getting rid of it. When that happens, just take it every two hours. Rinse and repeat, basically. Vitamin D and Zinc daily are great ways to bolster your immune system. People will argue that you get enough vitamin D from the sun, but as we age, the body's production of vitamin D slows down until it reaches a point (usually when we hit 50) where no amount of sun will give us the vitamin D we need, so supplementation is the way to go.

    Hope you recover soon – just remember: think healthy, be healthy. Appreciate the videos, have a great Easter.

  10. I'm have and love Matiere Premiere Santal Austral and also Creed Royal Oud which smells much more woody than oudy to me. Great video. Hope you feel better soon 😊

  11. I have a book recommendation for you. NOSE DIVE- a Field Guide to the Word's Smells written by Harold McGee. I know that you will love it. Get well !!

  12. Hi Ashley, thank you for your really good professionell videos. All the fragrances from your recommendations that I bought so far make me happy. I haven't bought a woody fragrance for myself yet but Black Afgano interests me a lot. Would you say it's nice on a woman's skin? I hope you get better soon 😉 Looking forward for more videos from you!

  13. Ashley, sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. Thanks for doing this excellent video even while under the weather. I own 4 of the fragrances that you mentioned in this video. I need to try Wonderwood by Comme des Garcons. Take care.

  14. Have not tried Encre Noire a l extreme. I have original and for me its perfect when its cool and raining outside. Smells like a walk in the woods when its raining but you also smell like burned wood.

  15. I received a complement from a friend just two days ago when I wore Encre Noir. I'll pick up Extreme. I can't pass up a chance to expand my collection with such an affordable fragrance. Maybe I'll give my sample size of Oud Wood another try today. Good to see you. Get back to 100% soon!
