Available in a 100 ml size, it's a spicy woody amber that plays on the contrast between light and shadow — a true mirage to wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Fragrance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWood Mirage is born from an image rather than a real place: a forest that exists on no map, suspended between light and shadow, where the outlines seem to blur as in a mirage. A concept that fits perfectly with Cave's signature method: every extrait in the Essential Luxury Parfum collection rests for months in the brand's tuff caves, where the natural microclimate rounds out the composition and amplifies its persistence on skin, almost replicating in the bottle the same play of shadow that inspired the fragrance's name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Evolves on Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWood Mirage opens with a luminous bergamot accord, sharpened by lemon and quickly warmed by a burst of fresh, pungent ginger — a citrus-spicy entrance that seems to cut through the air like a ray of sunlight filtering through the trees. Within minutes the heart takes shape: black pepper adds a vibrant warmth, rose lends a floral nuance that never turns cloying, while incense and cypriol build a resinous, almost smoky backbone, softened by the round smoothness of white wood. The base, the slowest to reveal itself, closes the composition with a deep leather and amber accord, punctuated by saffron that lingers close to the skin with its golden signature, while modern musks stretch the trail into a clean, enveloping echo that stays with the skin for hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho We Recommend Wood Mirage To\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend Wood Mirage to anyone looking for a woody amber that refuses a single identity: the citrus freshness of the opening makes it surprisingly wearable by day, while the leathery, amber base transforms it, as the hours pass, into an evening fragrance with a magnetic character. It's the ideal choice for anyone who loves scents that change on the skin throughout the day, and for anyone unwilling to settle for something predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFragrance Characteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntensity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e★★★★☆\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLongevity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e★★★★★\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSillage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e★★★★☆\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGender\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnisex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur Opinion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe love the very idea of a \"mirage\" applied to a perfume: Wood Mirage deceives the nose the way a mirage deceives the eye, opening one way and closing in a completely different one. It isn't a fragrance that lets itself be pinned down after the first spray, and it's exactly this unpredictability that makes it memorable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSimilar Fragrances\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/ambre-safrano\"\u003eAmbre Safrano, BDK Parfums\u003c\/a\u003e — shares saffron, black pepper, rose and incense, for an equally amber-spicy portrait, but with an even more pronounced leather heart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meydan\"\u003eDubai Meydan, The Spirit of Dubai\u003c\/a\u003e — shares saffron, bergamot, leather, amber and musk, in a smokier, more tobacco-driven version enriched with oud and cashmeran.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/fortis\"\u003eFortis, Liquides Imaginaires\u003c\/a\u003e — shares saffron, cypriol, amber and musk, in an even more resinous, woodier key built around oud and guaiac and cedar woods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the name \"Wood Mirage\" mean and what inspired it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe name evokes an imaginary forest, a territory suspended between what is real and what is imagined: an image reflected in the olfactory contrast between a bright opening and a much darker, deeper base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do Cave fragrances mature in tuff caves?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's the brand's signature method: every extrait in the collection rests for months in ancient caves dug into the tuff, where the natural microclimate rounds out the composition and increases its persistence on skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Wood Mirage better suited to cold weather, or can it be worn year-round?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts woody, leathery base makes it especially suited to autumn and winter, but the citrus opening lets it be worn just as naturally through the milder seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"What does the name \\\"Wood Mirage\\\" mean and what inspired it?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"The name evokes an imaginary forest, a territory suspended between what is real and what is imagined: an image reflected in the olfactory contrast between a bright opening and a much darker, deeper base.\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"Why do Cave fragrances mature in tuff caves?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"It's the brand's signature method: every extrait in the collection rests for months in ancient caves dug into the tuff, where the natural microclimate rounds out the composition and increases its persistence on skin.\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"Is Wood Mirage better suited to cold weather, or can it be worn year-round?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"Its woody, leathery base makes it especially suited to autumn and winter, but the citrus opening lets it be worn just as naturally through the milder seasons.\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}\n\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdl style=\"margin:0; padding:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003eCave\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eName\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003eWood Mirage\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eConcentration\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003eExtrait de Parfum\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e100 ml\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eOlfactory Family\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003eWoody Amber\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eLaunch Year\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003e2025\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-weight:bold; margin:0;\"\u003eMade in\u003c\/dt\u003e\u003cdd style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;\"\u003eItaly\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n","brand":"Cave","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":56588244386172,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0862\/4121\/4775\/files\/BOTTLEWOODMIRAGE.png?v=1775218901","url":"https:\/\/www.oudprofumeriaartistica.it\/en\/products\/wood-mirage","provider":"OUD Profumeria Artistica","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
