The Woods Collection The Essence (Natural Essence) EDP – Oriental Woody Floral with Spicy Leather & Amber Depth
Natural The Essence (also simply The Essence), introduced by The Woods Collection in 2023, is a unisex oriental-woody fragrance inspired by Penhaligon’s Halfeti. It blends saffron and cardamom spice with rich floral heart notes and a warm leather-amber base.
The Essence EDP opens with vibrant bergamot and grapefruit enhanced by saffron and cardamom, followed by a floral heart of jasmine and Bulgarian rose lifted with nutmeg. It settles into a luxurious oud-leather base enriched with tonka, vanilla, and musk. A refined alternative to Halfeti, it delivers rich oriental complexity and standout longevity at a niche-worthy price.
