A new interpretation on a timeless men's combination (wood and spice), Montale continues to break new ground in finding gorgeous, fragrant ways to surprise us all. It's both professional and sexy, a wonderfully confusing mix of freshness and depth. We're quite certain that the notes given to us by Montale are missing an ingredient or two, but if we had to guess, we'd say there's a mysterious citrus in here as a topnote, and we love it. Like the cut of a perfectly tailored shirt worn by a man with confidence who really couldn't care less about decking himself out in the newest, weirdest fashion, Wood & Spices is a very real, modern scent. This one will turn heads – but not because it's freaky, but because it's loaded with class and easy elegance.

Here's what other people are saying about Wood and Spices...

Wow. Eight stars. I want more W&S. Three extra stars for being so soothing it has the power to calm my senses. I feel like a classy piano player. If the artwork of Julie Bell, music of Khatia Buniatishvili, and fine Chavet Staunton French chessmen had a scent, this is it. Pure heaven. Or at least that’s how I feel about it. Definitely full bottle worthy.

Super masculine. Bad ass. Dark woody spicy. Only certain people can handle this heavy sword.

It is a nice scent that is able to hold it's ground on the skin quite well. I was bumeed on the fact of it having very little spiciness. If you like wood and a 'amberish' scent, this may be for you.

I really liked the sample so I bought it. I'm finding a full spray can be a lot different than the sample which you apply with the applicator stick. One spray will do you with this stuff, it is very strong. I can't imagine I'll ever get through the 100ml size. I still like it but for me it's really amped up with a full spray compared to the sample. I wish it was a little less strong but I do still like it just wish I had a smaller bottle.

I received this as a complementary sample, so it may smell different if sprayed rather than applied with the sample wand. The opening scents were... a little nose-flaying. There was cardamom, but mixed with a chemical smell sort of like a big black sharpie. Now that it has dried down, it is sweet with a very dark wood smell, presumably the ebony. I don't personally like really dark, deep scents, or really sweet scents, so this doesn't work for me. This isn't a bad smell, but I think that if someone wearing this started to get even the slightest hint of body odor, this dark component could really start to smell dank.

I bought the Wood and Spices after receiving a sample from Holland. I thought it was a woman's fragrance and I wear it quite often and receive great comments about the scent I am wearing. Warm, interesting aroma for the ladies who love great perfumes.

I really like this scent - sweet, spicy woods, great on a woman, probably nice on a man too. Definitely a winner!

I love Montale fragrances. I wear the Greyland and it is spectacular. Same with the Red Vetyver. However, this scent was quite average. It had a fruity, sugary scent that was clean and simple but not too special. It might make a very simple, almost aftershave for daily wear for a regular guy dad or someone like that. The sugary scent almost became too much after an hour or so of catching the scent.

This is definitely for a guy - (but I'm not sure I'd like it on a guy, either.) It was outstandingly bad on my skin - a combination of spice, wood and vinegar - and very, very strong. Bleh.
