Original
Original by Officina Artigiana opens with birch, black pepper and orchid, leading into a heart of saffron and whiskey. The base settles on guaiac wood and toasted barley, joined by an amber accord. Part of the Woody family, the scent comes as an aftershave splash, an eau de parfum and a shaving soap.
