Woody Notes

Woody notes form the backbone of perfumery — grounding compositions with warmth, structure, and depth. Found in some of the most timeless and elegant fragrances, woods create an aura of sophistication that evolves beautifully on the skin.

At Zamoori, woody accords are celebrated for their ability to blend strength with serenity. From the creamy softness of sandalwood to the dry, resinous character of cedarwood, and the smoky richness of oud, each wood type brings a distinct personality to a scent. These notes often anchor lighter florals or spices, adding dimension and longevity while creating a feeling of natural balance and refinement.

Woody fragrances can be warm and enveloping, cool and crisp, or dark and mysterious. They frequently feature in oriental, amber, and aromatic compositions, evoking forests, polished wood, and the quiet confidence of tradition. Paired with ingredients such as vetiver, patchouli, leather, or amber, woody notes can express power, calm, or sensuality depending on their blend.

In perfumery, woody notes are often used as base notes — the foundation upon which the entire fragrance rests. They linger long after the brighter top notes fade, leaving a memorable and enduring impression.
