A bravado of Book's Cedarwood and Sandalwood woody essence amplified with smoky, velvety Musks. The herbaceous, dry wood lingers with a subtle smokiness for an inimitable signature trail.
Comparisons
We started with Book Expressive: a warm yet unexpectedly fresh woody scent built around Cedarwood and Sandalwood.
We then infused black tea and skin musk to place an emphasis on freshness for an aromatic Personal rendition.
We finished with a bravado, an amplified Bold rendition with the addition of smoky, velvety musks.

The fragrances at Commodity are simply wonderful. Having sampled all of the Expressive and Bold versions from the collection, I can honestly say I love the general dna of this house. They're all beautiful in their own way, but my standout favourite was Book from the start (closely followed by Velvet and Gold). I personally prefer the Bold range. I also love the ethos of the brand. Their website is a delight to use, their packaging is sublime, and delivery within the UK is super quick. I should really say more aboit why I love Book so much, but my best advice to anyone wondering about these stunning fragrances is to just explore the sample sets - even the attention to detail with the samples sets is superb.

Bold
Fragrance isn't one-scent-fits-all.
Some people wear fragrances only for themselves—preferring scents that are discrete, close to the skin, only to be noticed by the ones they allow close. Others prefer a statement fragrance—scents that fill the room with their presence, to be noticed by everyone else. And of course, there are the people that fall somewhere in between—preferring scents that will land them compliments within their immediate radius and without overwhelming any space.
With this in mind, each Commodity fragrance is available in three different Scent Space concentrations—Personal, Expressive, and Bold—so that you can find your favorite fragrance in your preferred Scent Space.
Select a Scent Space:
Personal-
Ideal if you prefer a subtle, intimate fragrance only to be noticed by you and the ones you allow close. These lighter, molecular renditions only have a whisper of their 'Expressive' counterpart and embody the concept of less is more. Soft, ethereal and luxurious, there's no need to worry about how others are experiencing your fragrance.
Expressive
The Expressive collection marks our starting point. This collection is considered by many to be the perfect balance of longevity and projection. These fragrances will make a statement without overpowering any space. To be noticed by you and the many around you, these are your effortless, everyday scents.
Bold
There is no modesty when it comes to the Bold collection. These are amplified renditions of their 'Expressive' counterpart and embody the concept of more is more. Strong, statement scents that will grab attention and make a statement as they fill the room with your presence, these are for you and everyone else.
Smoky and woody, this scent opens with notes of Eucalyptus and Violet. Then, as the minutes pass and the scent comes to life, you'll begin to notice Cedarwood and Sandalwood. For the final chapter, Velvet Musk and Smoke bring about a dramatic finale.
Try this fragrance in a Discovery Kit
The Bold Discovery Kit contains samples of six head-turning fragrances. An ideal way to experiment with fragrance and find the one which speaks to you.
“The original book was inspired by turning the pages and breathing in the smell of dry paper mingling in with the open fresh air. In Book Bold, I also used this as inspiration, but wanted to create a more expressive experience. I amplified the eucalyptus and cedar notes of Book Personal by layering in violet and earthy, deep vetiver root creating a more intense version for the wearer.”
