undervalued...

i'm a little surprised he's getting off so badly here. Yes the H/S could be better for an EDP that announces itself as very woody in the name and the name Wood&Wood also fooled me a bit in the beginning, I expected a very woody powerhouse, but it's not and I wouldn't fit the brand. After having tried almost all Issey on the test shelf, I am of the clear opinion that mainstream, but still very pleasing and high quality perfumes are made here, a polarizing powerhouse with dozens of woods and oud wouldn't suit it either. Since my test, the W&W has absolutely convinced me, it is relatively sweet but remains male in all notes. For the cold winter he has a little too little power for me, but for October/November and March/April he seems to me absolutely ideal, and as an allrounder, because he is not too strong he goes both in the office and at a nice dinner. For outdoor or club he has a little too little power for me, so I need something like Ultra Male or Wanted by night.

Disappointed for the first time by Miyake.

I love the Pour Homme fragrances from Miyake. They all have this special DNA that keeps thrilling me. Unfortunately I was completely disappointed for the first time. Too much Ambroxan (why in a wood composition?), no Yuzu, durability a joke and Sillage after 1 minute not available. The cardamom was perceptible but of strangely synthetic quality, the grapefruit biting resinous (didn't really fit me), then woody peach (what the hell...!) and woody patchouli with a little earthiness. A loser all down the line for me personally. And I was so looking forward to this scent, because I love woody scents. That's too bad. And where's the beautiful Miyake DNA? Hopefully that was just an exception. In the future, heavenly compositions like Noir Ambré again, please

Headache, unfortunately.

The purchase:
The fruity top note has unfortunately enticed me to a quick purchase. Since my Issey Miyake l'eau d'issey pour homme was used up, I wanted to test a new fragrance this time. The only concern I had was that I already had a Japanese woody scent namely Comme de garcons Wonderwood The smell:
But the Issey Miyake Wood & Wood is so fruity in the beginning that it could not be compared.
Unfortunately, the fruity, citric grapefruit note is followed by a synthetic punch.
I could never smell the apricot It gets very woody, which I like, but something made me feel slightly nauseous.
After I tested it again one day later, I brought it back to the branch.
The bottle:
I must say, Issey Miyake bottles are very similar. But this one was already a little bit different in contrast to the classic l'eau d'issey ,this lid is made of wood which I didn't even notice at first.
It was all the more painful for me that I had to bring the scent back to the store. Too bad this fragrance does not fit at all to the perfectionist Japanese tradition.
A plus point for the wooden lid, however, that could or should be more often, much much more often. MFG Max

Wood/Wood all good!

I like woody fragrances, I really like them.
I received this as a gift.
I've never been able to do anything with the Issey Miyake brand before, not one bit really.
New, it costs between 70-110€ for a 100ml bottle.

About the bottle:
The feel/grip is superficially smooth, ergonomically shaped.
This ensures good handling.
With a very good color gradient.
Spray head is in the upper midfield.
Perfectly adequate, better than many other brands.

About the fragrance:
Immediately after spraying, a fresh aquatic, with a woody touch.
Then quickly fruity and synthetic, with a spicy finish.

Lasts 4-6 hours and is therefore in the lower range.
Sillage approx. 1-3h, this is also in the lower range.

Conclusion:
I received this fragrance as a gift and tested it privately for a short time.
Then used it as a fragrance for work and finally gave it as a gift to a colleague at work.
He was delighted, all good.

Beautiful fragrance, poor performance

This is a very pleasant fresh men's fragrance but still, because of its performance, could not convince me. After 2 hours at the latest was still barely something of the fragrance perceptible. He smells also not really as the name (Wood & Wood) suggests it. Of course there is a woody note but it is by far not as dominant. Much more I smell a subtle fresh wood on a high mountain if you could imagine it that way.
