Description
Praline in Maple by Scents of Wood is a wonderfully inviting fragrance that blends gourmand sweetness with aromatic spice, creating a cozy yet sophisticated experience. It opens with a lively burst of black and pink pepper alongside clove bud, setting a warm and spicy tone. As it settles, the heart reveals a delicious roasted praline and chestnut accord, softened by the balsamic warmth of Peru balsam and olibanum. The dry down is a comforting embrace of cedarwood, guaiacwood, and patchouli oil, providing a rich, woody foundation that lingers beautifully. This scent truly captures the essence of a sweet, woody indulgence.
