Tweed has top notes of bergamot, cinnamon and geranium. Middle notes of ylang-ylang, jasmine, lavender and orange flower. Dry Down notes of oakmoss, patchouli, sandalwood, benzoin, vanilla and vetiver.

Tweed is a sensuous woody floral fragrance with an emphasis on a dark, captivating earthy-woody mystique, the floral notes add an intoxicating feminine touch. There is a distinct resinous quality about Tweed making it an English icon in perfumery through the years. Even with all its rich depth and mysteriousness, Tweed is not too heavy or overbearing. The oriental base is very alluring; not sweet nor soft - more of a feeling of perfect balance of natural essences.

Described by Maryel Tweed was launched in 1936.

I have the perfumed talc, and I really love putting it on after an evening shower. Cool and spicy, and because it's a scent I remember from childhood, it's like the fragrance equivalent of comfort food. It's very soothing and relaxing.

This reminds me of Safari or outdoors smell without smelling ferral. I do like it. When I was younger it smelled too old but I am in my 30's now and I think it is a very natural smell with enough complexity so you don't just smell like shampoo or baby's bum. I find it is a smooth powdery but leathery smell but fresh all at the same time. It never turns stale.

When I was young I got this as a hand-me-down perfume. I thought it smelled like dusty old clothes that someone found in an attic. I wore it exactly once. I would love to rediscover this again and see if I still have the same opinion. I haven't seen it anywhere in years.

Received my 2 to 2 1/2 ounces of vintage Tweed today. It is a lovely woody fragrance. I don't find it dirty at all. Some say it reminds them of thrift store clothing. I don't smell that one bit. I wore Tweed as a teen and loved it then. I will have to get back with sillage and longevity info. If I approved of Fox Hunting, this is what I would wear. I do not approve because blood sports offend me and make me somewhaat ashamed of the human race. I realize only an elitist few Fox Hunt.

Well, the longevity is good. I have not really tested enough to speak about its sillage.

i tried this today, let it sit for awhile on my skin and it was heavenly. soft, powdery, a touch of sweet, a touch of cinnamon. a little musk and sandlewood thrown in. just the right balance of these notes. i fell in love. i hope i can find this awesome fragrance, the one i tried belongs to someone else.

My Mother once referred this as "common," therefore, I never wore it - until recently.....it's sooooo good.

Tried this one again today and I have to withdraw all statements about old peoples homes etc this is a beautiful, elegant scent lovely, mossy and dark like a twilit wood with nothing cloying or vulgar about it.
Don't believe the hype of other expensive fragrances - I prefer this to Mitsouko any day of the week!! It has a very natural 'English Countryside' smell to it and I'm going to buy some in September, ready for the Autumn!

Just re-discovered this beauty.
Contains all my favorite notes.
Long lasting, earthy, fresh.
An alternative when I don't want amber under note.

Had to be past caring what other people think to buy Tweed as it suffers from being too inexpensive and accessible.
For once you get far more than you pay for.

I think like the reviewer below, I will keep a bottle of tweed in my Rover (200) although I christened 'him' roy, a few squirts of this very english scent on his interiors will go down a treat ;o)
I just bought a bottle of this recently, as I remembered my mum used to wear it a lot when I was young, in the Eighties. I couldn't wait to rediscover it. I adore the scent, I have it on now and can't stop sniffing myself. I'm not sure if I love the actual scent or the connotations connected to it? it smells talky, soft, but not too soft, feminine with a smidge of masculine.
I will wear it to work tomorrow and see if I wear it well?!
Aww, Mum, you beautiful creature...

One of the few most timeless classic fragrances I have ever worn has been Tweed. It has a classic English elegance about it. I was given a bottle of Tweed by my Aunt when I was about eight years of age. She never liked it. I felt really special all grown up infact! Since then it has been a favourite of mine. As well as receiving it as a gift, I have given Tweed as gifts to family and friends. Always a classic and chic fragrance. Its the epitome of an English Lady Rover. I espcially like the woody notes, patchouli, sandalwood. It is a sensuous and feminine fragrance. I wear it most days. In the autumn, in summertime. Its light enough for anytime. I keep a 15ml size bottle in the glove compartment of my Rover 400. Tweed is indeed 'The Finishing Touch
'.
