The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2009 by Tom Ford, Arabian Wood is a Woody Chypre fragrance created by Rodrigo Flores-Roux. The composition opens with green and aromatic notes that create an initial freshness, which then transitions to the heart of white floral and rose, adding a touch of elegance and warmth. As it settles, earthy and mossy accords ground the scent, creating a rich and complex base that reads as both modern and lasting.
Arabian Wood's earthy and mossy base notes develop slowly on skin, so it’s best applied in the morning for a full day’s wear. A light spritz is enough — its richness doesn't need to overwhelm to be noticed.
