Masculine · EDP · £29.44
Inspired by Tom Ford Grey Vetiver.
A citrus-vetiver-oud masculine confirmed as a genuinely distinct composition from the already-catalogued base Woody, discussed within the community as a possible Tom Ford Grey Vetiver alternative. Product Overview Woody Wow, also sold under the reversed name Wow Woody, launched around 2014 as a 60ml eau de parfum. A UK price of 29.44 pounds is confirmed via a UK marketplace reseller rather than an official UK stockist, so treat this as an indicative grey-market figure rather than a brand RRP. This is a genuinely separate fragrance from Rasasi's base Woody, already catalogued in the Atlas: different launch year, different SKU, and almost entirely different notes beyond a shared pink pepper top and general woody-musk skeleton. Scent Profile Grapefruit, yellow mandarin and pink pepper open together, a bright citrus start. The heart brings vetiver, patchouli and cedarwood into an aromatic woody development. The base closes on oud, musk and amber, a warm, resinous finish that pulls it into oriental woody territory. Technical Structure and Development The grapefruit and mandarin opening is bright and immediate, softening within thirty to forty minutes into the vetiver and patchouli heart. The oud, musk and amber base becomes dominant from around the ninety minute mark, giving the fragrance a warmer, richer finish than its citrus opening suggests. Performance No detailed independent longevity data was found; expect solid performance typical of Rasasi's EDP tier given the oud and amber base's tendency to anchor projection through several hours. Wear Scenarios - Daily wear for those who want a citrus opening with a richer oud finish - Buyers curious about a budget alternative to Tom Ford Grey Vetiver's citrus-vetiver structure - Transitional wear from day into evening - Fans of Rasasi's more aromatic, less overtly sweet masculine entries Scent Family Positioning Woody Wow sits in the citrus aromatic woody oud lane, classified by at least one retailer under an aromatic family, distinguished from base Woody's floral-woody structure by its citrus-vetiver-oud arc. Inspired By and Style Comparisons A Fragrantica community forum thread specifically asks whether Woody Wow is a Tom Ford Grey Vetiver clone, though the thread's actual discussion content could not be directly read in this research. Given the note profile of grapefruit and mandarin top notes running into a vetiver-forward heart, the comparison is structurally plausible, so it is logged here as a single sourced, unconfirmed lead rather than a fully verified dupe claim. Flankers and Variations Genuinely distinct from the already-catalogued base Woody, which is a floral-woody composition built on mimosa, gardenia, tuberose and fig wood, sharing almost no notes with Woody Wow beyond pink pepper and a general musk-cedar base category. Market and Community Reception One retailer explicitly brands it Woody, Wild On Wood in its own product copy, and notes it as an export or limited distribution item in some markets, suggesting narrower availability than Rasasi's mainstream releases. No dedicated Fragrantica page or Parfumo listing was found under this name, meaning its identity rests on retailer sourcing rather than crowd-verified community data, worth flagging for anyone auditing the record further.
