Woody Chestnut is Dossier’s interpretation of Replica By the Fireplace. Pink pepper, orange blossom and clove lead into chestnut, guaiac and cade woods, with vanilla, Peru balsam and cedarwood in the base. Guaiac and cade are the fire, clove and chestnut the roasting. The US listing calls it an EDT while UK and EU pages say EDP, so check the bottle.
