Do you mean a "woody perfume?" A woody perfume smells like sandalwood, drier and cedar wood. It is aromatic and citrusy.

It's figurative: the scent of the perfume is so thick and cloying it may as well be wool. Think of clouds of scent and you're on the right track.

Personally view, just to be relevant, thank you.
