What is the best varnish for wood

Water-based acrylic varnish does not have a strong odor.
Which is better, matte or glossy varnish for wood
Matte wood varnish looks more natural and aesthetically pleasing, while glossy wood varnish adds shine to your wood.

If there are any imperfections on the surface and the natural pattern is not clear, then it is better to purchase a matte varnish.
