ABOUT

Dreamwood is a modern woody accord that blends creamy, velvety sandalwood-like facets with a subtle airy musk and soft resinous sweetness, producing a hushed, slightly powdery woodiness that feels intimate, ethereal, and gently comforting. It evokes twilight forests and warm, downy blankets—simultaneously clean and sensuous. Perfumers deploy Dreamwood as a base-building ingredient to provide smooth, contemporary wood character and longevity; it anchors florals, ambers and gourmands, can replace or bolster natural sandalwood and cedar, and adds diffusion, warmth and a soft powdery finish to oriental, woody and modern fresh compositions.
