Secret Woods by John Richmond is a soft, musky scent with a spicy, woody edge. Released in 2022 and composed by Véronique Nyberg, it balances clean musk against a little warmth from spice, amber and wood, with a thread of citrus and flowers running through it.
The first impression comes from bergamot and green notes, bright and slightly leafy, lifted by a dry prick of pepper. Liquorice and brandy then add something unusual: a dark, faintly sweet, boozy note that gives the composition its character. Orange blossom softens this with a touch of honeyed floral. Underneath, white musk lays down a smooth, skin-like veil, while sandalwood brings creamy wood and amberwood a dry, glowing warmth.
Secret Woods is a shared fragrance, so it is worn by anyone. Its blend of clean musk and gentle spirit-like warmth suits someone who wants a quiet signature rather than a loud one, and it reads as easy for evenings, cooler days or relaxed weekends.
