   |  Strange, when I tried this version of Firewood, it was less intense than some other "firewood" scents: Galliano, Sonoma Scent Studio's Fireside and Fireside Intense, for example. It had a slight hint of sweet/plastic, perhaps from the incense notes. It does not bother me; in fact, it adds to the depth of the fragrance. It is not my favorite version, but is nice and perhaps more enjoyable for those who find other versions of this scent overwhelming.17 July 2007 |
   | As the other reviewers have mentioned, a very faithful woodsmoke smell. On a par with the Miller Harris roomspray for realism, if not better. As suggested by some other reviewers, I'd be interested to see her extend into room sprays, candles etc. I got definite whiffs of cedar and tobacco; lots of smoke, drying down into ashes. In fact, I must admit to getting a touch of ashtrays, but that might just be the ex-smoker in me. I found this very dry, too dry perhaps. In the end I sweetened it with a dab of Ava Luxe's 'Milk', which worked nicely. 11 June 2007 |
  | One of the luxe editions, Fire Wood kicks off with a huge burst of evergreen wood and a touch of woodsmoke. The smoke is pleasant, and not overwhelming as it sometimes is in fragrances like Fumerie Turque - Fire Wood is more like a camp fire in a pine forest. As it dries down, the incense emerges and it begins to resemble, ever so slightly, Zagorsk. Fire Wood is unisex, but has a strong masculine appeal. It lasts very well and has decent sillage. Although I don't think it's quite right for me, I do enjoy the smell. I wonder if Ms Luxe has ever thought of doing candles, because this would be superb! 30 May 2007 |
  | This is the best firewood scent! Woody, without being a pure wood scent, smoky, without being harsh and bitter, cosy, without being gourmandy sweet. An open fire of birch wood and, although it's not in the description, fir and pine wood. 14 April 2007 |
  | A bonfire in pine woods on a chilly autumn evening. You'll like this if you like woodsmoke and evergreens. Not particularly complex and rather linear, but as the other reviewer noted, great longevity & sillage. 01 February 2007 |
 | One of my very favorite Ava Luxe scents. Rich, spicey, sweet aroma of a bonfire with fantastic longevity and sillage. Similar to Diptyque's Galliano Room Spray, but with stronger cedar tones and not as smokey. A winner for those who love Shiseido's Basara/Basala. 11 November 2006 |
