Scents of Wood Pine in Acacia — the scent of coniferous freedom
Scents of Wood Pine in Acacia is a unisex fragrance by Scents of Wood, released in 2022.
This eau de parfum has a distinctive woody-aromatic character and a very strong sillage — an option for those who enjoy fragrances that make their presence known and gradually fill the space around them.
Scents of Wood appeared in the United States in 2020 and from the very beginning built its philosophy around nature, wood materials and the art of perfumery.
Pine in Acacia fits perfectly into this aesthetic: its character evokes the image of a coniferous forest, cool air and green branches, while retaining a modern niche intensity.
The composition’s pyramid and character
The composition features cypress, fir, lavender, pine, pink pepper, thyme and vetiver.
The top, heart and base notes are not listed separately, so it is more accurate to perceive the fragrance as a cohesive accord in which fresh, spicy, green and woody nuances intertwine from the very beginning.
The main accent belongs to pine: it creates a feeling of resinous coolness and clean forest air.
Cypress and fir accompany it, adding dry woodiness and coniferous depth, while lavender and thyme support the aromatic, slightly herbaceous tone.
Pink pepper enlivens the composition with a delicate spicy spark, while vetiver lends the finish an earthy austerity.
Development, sillage and wearability
On the skin, Pine in Acacia comes across as composed, cool and confident.
At the opening, green and coniferous nuances are especially noticeable; then the dry spiciness of herbs emerges, and the vetiver-woody base gradually grows stronger.
Its very strong sillage makes the fragrance suitable for open spaces, walks, travel and situations where you want to emphasize your individuality.
The fragrance is classified as unisex and can sound equally natural on a woman or a man.
It is especially good in cool spring and autumn weather, develops more intensely in winter, and requires a light touch in summer because of its powerful sillage.
Exact recommendations for applying it to skin and clothing are not provided in the available data, so it is best to start with a small amount and assess the intensity on your own skin.
The perfumer and the fragrance’s place in the brand’s style
The fragrance was created by perfumer Pascal Gaurin.
His authorship is evident here in the balance between the natural recognizability of coniferous notes and a careful modern presentation: Pine in Acacia does not seek to be sweet or decorative, but instead focuses on clarity, texture and an impressive trail.
In terms of mood, the composition belongs to the aromatic and woody families, with aromatic, green, spicy and woody accents standing out among its olfactory directions.
Other concentrations of this release are not specified in the available data.
For further exploration, consider Dsquared² 2 Wood — it also explores the woody theme, although Pine in Acacia leans noticeably more toward coniferous freshness and a green forest character.
