Bowmakers, by DS&Durga, was composed by David Seth Moltz and released in 2013. It is a woody scent above all, and about half of those who wear it also find it sweet, ambery and leathery, which describes a varnished-wood character rather than a forest one.

Bowmakers, by DS&Durga, was composed by David Seth Moltz and released in 2013. It is a woody scent above all, and about half of those who wear it also find it sweet, ambery and leathery, which describes a varnished-wood character rather than a forest one.

The notes are given as a single list rather than a pyramid: woody notes, resins, leather, pine tree, mahogany, walnut and maple. Together they read like a workshop, with the pine bringing a sharp, sappy freshness, the mahogany and walnut a dark, polished woodiness, the resins a sticky warmth, and the maple a faint syrupy sweetness. The leather sits underneath and gives it a worn, slightly smoky depth.

Most wearers report moderate longevity and a moderate projection that does not travel far. It is voted mainly for autumn and winter and splits almost evenly between day and night. Worn by anyone, it suits someone who likes the smell of wood and varnish more than flowers or citrus.
