Wood and Absinth by Mark Buxton, as a decant
Mark Buxton Wood and Absinth is a perfume that we decant into glass spray vials of 2, 5 or 10 ml. What it contains is not on record with us, so the description stops at the facts we have. Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.
On request
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands. Read how we fill your sample

On the skin
We have the name and the house of Wood and Absinth, not its notes. Instead of copying a list from somewhere, we leave that part empty. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
Mark Buxton Wood and Absinth is listed so that you can ask for it. Send the form on this page and your interest is noted; we do not name a date. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
The decant holds the same liquid as the full bottle of Mark Buxton Wood and Absinth, moved into a small glass spray vial by FragranceGems and labelled by us. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
With no season on file for Mark Buxton Wood and Absinth, the fair test is simply several different days. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
We hold no data on who Wood and Absinth is meant for, so we do not label it. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week.
With a decant you find out in a week what a description cannot tell you in a page. We decant from the original bottle and label the vial ourselves. Mark Buxton does not make or endorse these samples; it is not an official brand sample.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands.

No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Wood and Absinth from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
No note list is on record with us for Mark Buxton Wood and Absinth, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
That depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Wood and Absinth; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.
The brand
From Mark Buxton you find 15 perfumes here, each as a decant. Every sample is a decant in a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Mark Buxton belongs to the niche perfume samples on DecantGems. Wearing a perfume for a few days is the fair way to judge it, and that is what a decant is for.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
