About
Driftwood smells of sun-bleached, weathered wood warmed by salt air and faint smoke—dry and slightly resinous with mineral, leathery and ambergris-like nuances and an ozonic, sea-breezy edge. It evokes coastal solitude, bonfires on the shore, and the tactile roughness of wood smoothed by tides. In perfumery it is used as a base or drydown accord to anchor aquatic, woody and amber compositions, adding a long-lasting, lived-in maritime texture; perfumers recreate it by blending cedar or aged sandal notes with cade or birch tar, vetiver, sea-salt/ozone effects and subtle amber or musky facets.
