The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Magnetic Wood by The Harmonist was launched in 2016 and is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for both women and men. Perfumer Guillaume Flavigny crafted this composition with a distinctive balance of bright citrus and green mandarin notes that give way to the warm, enveloping embrace of sandalwood and cedar. The heart of osmanthus and mimosa adds a delicate floral touch, while sea daffodil introduces an unexpected freshness. This fragrance is neither overly sweet nor too woody, striking a harmonious blend that feels both grounding and uplifting.

How to wear it

Apply Magnetic Wood with two sprays for a balanced wear. The initial freshness fades within an hour, but the warm wood base lingers throughout the day. This fragrance reads best close to the skin, making it ideal for intimate settings or quiet moments.
