Lovely soft boozy wood. Definitely perfume-y so not really an incense type wood, but it's overall very delicate and not obtrusive. Niiiiiccce. Reallly like this one.

I've had this sample for a couple of years and never got around to trying it until I ran out of Tam Dao, my go-to scent for when I want a lot of wood and no frilly stuff. I still prefer Tam Dao,...

Just as I was gingerly coming out of my citrus/floral comfort zone, Sequoia whacked me me back in with wooden bat. I've recently begun exploring the Comme des Garcons line and fell in love...

There are few things as irresistable to me as the combination of 'sequoia' and 'comme des garcons'. I tried this several times at stores, each time thinking surely I should fall in love with this...

Sequoia, my favorite fragrance from the Red Series and the entire CdG line. This one is no doubt very masculine, powers to the women who wear this. People say this is a woody fragrance, to me...

I'd buy this again but as a gift maybe; definitely not for myself since it's so masculine. There's something about it that makes me think of Vol de Nuit without VDN's feminine, meloncoly...

I was hoping for more tree, less cologne. For some reason, this one smelled like aftershave to me. I love nothing more than to smell real sequoia trees and this is NOT it.

If you want to smell like the tree, buy this. I don't particularly want to smell "like" a tree, but I DID find myself sniffing my arm over and over after applying this as I love the smell of fresh...

beautiful -- if nothing like a live tree -- but utterly addictive. woodsy, resinous, slightly bitter, with a faint berry note hidden in its depth. one spray lasts all day (but i wear my scents...

This smells like A & W rootbeer on me. It never did anything else on my skin. Nothing special. A little odd I think. I don't really want to smell like that.

I don't see the similarities between this and Palisander at all. While Palisander is smooth and refined this one is sharp and medicinal to me.

On one hand, frequishly accurate. It really does smell like the peppery, tingly fresh odor emenating from sequoia wood, or the furry, red bark of a redwood tree. BUT it also smells like the...

I just deleted my review because I was feeling ambiguous, so now I have to rewrite it. I originally gave this scent 5 lippies, but sometimes when I put it on I am reminded, inadvertantly, of a...

If you are someone who uses the phrase "hamster cage" disparagingly when you discuss cedar fragrances, you should probably stay faaaaaar away from Sequoia. On the other hand, if the idea of...

I have to rate this highly. In truth, however, it only deserves 4.5 rather than 5 lippies, as it is sublime, but not as potent as I would need it to be to give it a perfect score. It's such a rich...

I have wanted to try this one for ages and it's just as good as I thought it would be. Warm, rich wood scent, more "untamed" than the "furniture-like" Palisander. Love the rum note...
