Cosmic Woods® - Extrait de Parfum

So I’ve been on the E.T. ride only one time before in my life, when it was still here at our Universal Studios in California when I went with my brother and cousin years ago before they stupidly got rid of it...but I loved that ride. It was awesome and I remember that great smell when you go in the amazing queue for the ride with all the trees. And even though it’s been years and I only got to experience it once, I remembered that good smell that I loved from the forest queue. And I can say as soon as I smelled this after I sprayed a little on my hand, it really does smell like it. It definitely makes me think of that forest part before the ride. Smells just like you’re in the woods. :) Like a magical forest at night. The only thing is I think it does fade too quickly like others said...it really smells like in you’re in the woods at first though. You can smell the trees, but then it kind of fades after a few minutes. I noticed they gave me a card though with my order that says “spray me” on it and when you spray it on that spot it does seem like the woods smell lasts at least a bit longer. I kind of wish they could make room sprays of some of these scents too, not just a perfume. I tried a room spray from the Magic Candle Company that was supposed to smell like this ride’s forest smell, but it doesn’t really fully smell like it.. :/ It’s lacking a lot of the smell of the woods. But THIS smells like it to me, it’s more what I had in mind of what I remember the forest part smelling like.
Also this bottle is very nice, I like the green color with trees and love the holographic moon sticker on it that says Cosmic Woods. ☺️ I display it in my room with my other stuff, it’s a cool like novelty item to have along with the decorated vhs box it comes in. lol :p I like that they call it the Adventure fragrance. :) I can spray a little sometimes on myself or something else when I want to smell a nice mystic forest. ✨

I've never had the opportunity to ride the E.T. ride so I can't say anything about the resemblance.
The initial smell is awesome!
A soft and mystic smell of evergreen trees surrounds you.
And my first thought was: That's the perfect perfume for me!
Sadly it kinda fades away quickly and it turns into a typical mens, after shavy, perfume.
Sometimes it gets back to the woodsy flavors and even developes some new but it never returns to its former glory.
Thats a bummer for me because at first it's the best perfume ever and then it's lacking hard...
Gotta say it's great combined with dark ride because the best nuances of both perfumes stand out a lot if combined and it creates a lingering mystical and weird smell in the best possible way.

A little late on this review as I purchased Cosmic Woods as soon as it came out but I’m wearing it today and had to review. Xyrena has done it again! I’m a Florida native who’s obsessed with theme parks and the smells their rides emit. E.T. Adventure’s ride queue scent has been sought after by enthusiasts for eons and finally its been bottled up so we can wear daily! For anyone with even an ounce of a doubt, they NAILED it! The second you spray, your transported to that very forest waiting to hop on your bike. Incredible! My one teeny tiny gripe is that being used to Dark Ride’s longevity (which literally can last days), Cosmic is more subdued in that respect
Don’t hesitate and grab your bottle today! A Xyrena fan for life!

It is an unbearably hot day in the Florida summer. Somehow it doesn't matter, though, because you are waiting in line for the one ride that has outlasted the others, the one that fills the your heart and entire being with nostalgic feelings - an extraterrestrial adventure ride at a major theme park. The doors open, you watch the pre-ride movie, and you are allowed in the main queue and give your name (or a fake one because that is WAY more fun). The main doors open and the second you step in, all sense of the real outdoors disappears. You are surrounded by a redwood forest with all of its smells, the coolness in the air, and Botanicus hanging out on a rock. It smells nothing short of amazing. You walk past the Speak and Spell, the waterfalls, and you want nothing more than to live in this environment (or at the very least, camp out for a while). If any of this sparks a memory or two, you MUST buy Cosmic Woods. It has a sweet forest smell, a bit "fuzzy and soft," but mostly soft. It will absolutely bring you back to your ride at that park off of International Drive in Orlando. It made me happy as soon as I sprayed it once. It has since become my favorite scent. For those of you that feel like it's missing a certain something, spray Dark Ride with it. You're welcome.

Upon ordering and receiving a sampler for Dark Ride, my family and I loved it so much, we decided to order a full bottle. When going to do so, I saw that Cosmic Woods had been created and placed up for sale. I ordered a bottle of it as well, having been so delighted with Dark Ride. Cosmic Woods has arrived, and, with it, another faithful recreation a scent long beloved. Where Dark Ride is mysterious, with an atmosphere both clean and murky, Cosmic Woods features a gentle ethereal quality, that feels as though the wearer is on the verge of exploring something both unknown and wondrous. The fragrance easily calls to mind a gentle forest at night, mixed with that special extra beckoning sense of mystery. Cosmic Woods does pair wonderfully with Dark Ride, harnessing the power of scent to transport the wearer to a feeling; all the magic that theme park rides bring. My mother has declared Cosmic Woods to be her new signature scent, and, is practically floating while wearing it; she's overjoyed that she likes it so much, her old favorite, and constant regular, Iris Nobile by Aqua Di Parma, having been discontinued, and thus forcing her to search for something new. Cosmic Woods has ended her search, most definitively! If anyone has enjoyed Dark Ride, they will most likely enjoy Cosmic Woods as well! Our family is delighted with Xyrena's triumph, and, will be regular customers!
A request we'd like to submit, if Xyrena decides to tackle another theme park scent. I would love to see if you all could recreate the orange scent from the Horizons attraction in Epcot; it was a stronger orange fragrance then the orange scent currently used in the Soaring attraction, while mixed a sense of a strong A/C, and, I've never come across anything quite like it again. It's something I miss very much.
