The review

On paper, Citron Wood is a strong bet if you want Cedrat Boisé for less.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Cedrat Boisé's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 it costs 84% less than Cedrat Boisé.

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on sicilian citron, bergamot and blackcurrant, turns to patchouli and white woods, and settles into musk, vanilla and amber. That is the brief Citron Wood is working from.

Top

  • sicilian citron
  • bergamot
  • blackcurrant

Heart

  • patchouli
  • white woods

Base

  • musk
  • vanilla
  • amber
For the everyday armor. Zesty citron and blackcurrant ride bright white woods and musk — sharp, sweet and endlessly versatile.
