Mycelium in Chestnut
The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, in a cozy café where woodsy notes blend with the scent of fresh coffee and pastries.

The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2023 and crafted by Mackenzie Reilly, Mycelium in Chestnut by Scents of Wood is a Woody fragrance for both women and men. The composition opens with a bright citrus accord that cuts through the earthy richness of mycelium and chestnuts, creating an intriguing tension between freshness and depth. This contrast is further enhanced by the sweet, nutty heart notes, which are balanced by a powdery, mossy base that adds warmth and complexity.
One or two sprays is sufficient — the citrus top notes are vibrant but fleeting, while the earthy and mossy base notes develop slowly over time. This fragrance performs best close to skin rather than filling a room, so aim for pulse points.
