La Martina Alpha Woods Eau de Cologne 40ml is a clean, modern unisex citrus-aromatic from the Argentinian polo-inspired lifestyle brand La Martina. Composed by Mathilde Bijaoui, it pairs a sparkling lime-and-pink-pepper opening with a soft violet-leaf heart and a warm woody base of Haitian vetiver and patchouli. The result is a polished, slightly mineral cologne intended as everyday wear for both men and women.
About La Martina
La Martina is an Argentinian luxury casualwear and lifestyle brand founded in 1985, internationally recognised for its strong association with the sport of polo — it has been the official supplier to most national polo teams since 1982. The brand's perfumery line extends the same heritage into fragrance, drawing on the South American countryside, leather and herbaceous cocktails as olfactory references.

The story behind Alpha Woods
Alpha Woods is part of La Martina's Colección Privada line, a small collection of unisex eaux de cologne released alongside Blue Gardenia, Nude Amber and Solar Musk. The brief was a clean, lightly woody fragrance suited equally to men and women, with a structure built around just five well-chosen notes. The flacon is the line's signature pared-back glass, with a polished cap and minimalist typography.
Who it's for
Alpha Woods is genuinely unisex and suits anyone drawn to fresh, woody-citrus fragrances with a contemporary minimalism — wearers of Diptyque L'Eau de Tarocco, Le Labo Bergamote 22, or Hermès Terre d'Hermès, who want a more accessible alternative. Best in spring, summer and warm-weather wear; ideal for office, weekend and casual evening contexts.
How to wear it
- Spray onto pulse points — chest, neck, inside of the wrists — from around 15cm.
- Two to three sprays for daytime; build up gently for longer wear.
- Apply over an unscented body lotion to extend the soft vetiver-patchouli drydown, particularly on dry skin.
