Sugarwood Costamor for women

I absolutely LOVE this scent. I am so excited to say that I have become a proud owner of a bottle of this gem. I ordered a bunch of samples from lucky scent a while ago, and this perfume immediately went on my "to buy" list. I thought I was going to have to order it online, but I found a little boutique in Seattle that was selling this line! To me this fragrance smells exactly like sugarcane. I do not find it too sweet at all. I immediately smell a woody fibrous scent underlying the sugar as soon as it is sprayed. I can notice the bergamot in the background just giving it the slightest bit of tartness. As the other reviewers have said this is an unusual scent, so definitely do not buy blind!

Sugarwood is interesting and quite different than "mainstream" sugary scents. Somehow "natural", little earthy (more so than woody in my opinion. I am getting more of fresh - almost "dirty" - roots and greenery rather than wood itself. I can easily envision a field of sugarcane with the lush, dark green foliage heated by strong sun and washed and refreshed by warm rain. Now, of course, the foliage is also splattered in mud). Unlike the other reviewers, I don't find it very sweet at all, but maybe that's because I have tested some REAL sweet fragrances recently. :-). The fig, lovely, lovely flowers and vanilla make it feminine, especially as the fragrance develops and it does so very prettily. The sugar here is indeed a little burned or better still - very raw, unrefined as is the whole concoction. Put on freshly showered skin is does seem to create quite unusual - for a moment perhaps almost shocking - sweetish, almost dirty rawness. It's not repulsive or unpleasant, quite the opposite, but it is not what one expects from a "sweet" fragrance or from clean skin. I like it quite a lot, but I WILL have to ask what others think when they smell me. :-)

All of the reviews so far are right: this is a pleasant scent but not necessarily soemthing I would want to buy and wear. It's like sugarcane, with it's depth of sweetness mixed with some uplifting citrus at the start, then some figgy jammy-ness with a soft wood. It's nice and sort of interesting, but I won't buy it.

This was an interesting, almost fascinating scent, but it really didn't seem like a perfume you would WEAR. Sort of an adventure in sniffing. I smell the earth, fresh dirt, green crops growing. And there's some of Costamor's usual sugar in there, though not as strong as Dulcess/Tabacca. This is a wonderful scent in nature, and I bet Costa Rica sugar fields smell just like this. But I wouldn't want this one on my wrist.

I wasn't at all certain of this scent. it seemed perhaps too sweet. I purchased a bottle after sampling though. The cedar acts as a counterpoint to the sweet. what I perceive is sugar cane the plant, not sugar the finished component. The flowers lend a surrounding quality again to remind you that you are not in bag of sugar, but a field of cane. overall it is unusual, lovely and something I have been reaching for as the weather gets warmer.

It's pleasant but odd. On me the fig and cedar combine to yield fig newton--the juiciness just isn't there.

It's just like it's name implies. Sugar and wood. Has a hint of pleasing citrus at the opening thanks to the bergamot. Flower notes come forward within minutes and the fragrance has a honey like quality from the fig. Even so, I don't find the sweetness too cloying and appreciate the cedar note which holds this fragrance back from venturing into candy territory. I think this makes a great summer fragrance and worth trying if a person appreciates sweeter fragrances.
