Fueguia 1833 Caoba | 2ml Sample

An antique mahogany box opened after years shut.

Caoba is built on mahogany itself, with pitanga and sweet cane giving the wood a tart, faintly syrupy edge. Patchouli, rose, ambergris and vanilla fill out the rest, so what opens as dry timber settles into polished wood and old silk.

Perfumed by: Julian Bedel

Released: 2010

KSI Take: Bedel builds this around a single material and never hides it, so if mahogany and patchouli are not already things you like there is nothing here working to win you over. It also wears quietly and close to the skin, which at Fueguia prices can feel like short measure until you notice it is still there at the end of the day. Wear it indoors in cold weather, in the evening.
