HE WOOD "Contrast plays an important role in the Dsquared philosophy, as our fashion shows speak loud, we wanted our fragrance ti whisper, a strong yet intimate sensually. Remember: your fragrance should never enter the room before you" HE WOOD is wood

This fragrance reflects Dean and Dan deep love of their native land: Canada.
Which they choose to capture and celebrate through wood.
Wood as solid and reassuring substance, aromatic reminiscence, personal refuge, vibrant sensation… And their very first fragrance Is WOOD. A fragrance for men: HE WOOD.

This project reflects Dean and Dan philosophy and simplicity.
It’s inspired by the richest and strongest, most beautiful and basic of nature’s element: wood.
Wood is the true signature feature, is there in the name of the fragrance, it’s in the packaging materially present, it’s in the essence as an aromatic memory and it’s in the ad campaign as a reassuring element.

Dean and Dan dedicate their fragrance to the modern man who dreams of Nature in a quest for freedom and seduction.
The wood, Canadian Red Alder, frames and protects the perfectly square bottle.
Thanks to this wood’s rich nuancing of both hue and grain, each item is vibrantly unique.
The black brilliant stopper is also squared and nicely off-center.
Originality and pure natural simplicity, make Dsquared² He Wood a real design object.


The fragrance comes in a natural cardboard box which captures in a perfect way the mood of the project. This box is characterized by smooth texture and clean black relief graphics heighten its simple yet stunning allure.
