Bois Noir by Robert Piguet is an exceptionally deep and expressive fragrance that suits both men and women alike. This warm, lingering perfume with woody and resinous notes accentuates the natural ease and casual elegance of its wearer, devoid of any vulgarity or pretense.
Bois Noir is an incredibly multifaceted fragrance, telling a unique story to everyone. This cozy perfume evokes the ambiance of night-time gatherings around a fire: the warmth of the flames, the scent of smoke, and a rich woody chord.
The journey with Bois Noir begins with guaiac wood and white cedar. At the heart of the fragrance, you'll find soft, languid patchouli and refined oriental sandalwood. Musk, labdanum, and resins play in the final note, giving the fragrance a deep, rich, and viscous resonance.
Yes... A fragrance that you need to get used to, that you need to let air out. In other words, you need to get used to the first hour of its scent, then comes a pleasant base, and both guaiac wood and cedar are noticeable all the time. I struggled for a long time to figure out what the perfume smells like immediately after application... Then I remembered: an old abandoned railway line in the forest, heated by the summer sun, impregnated with creosote (which, by the way, includes products from the distillation of guaiac resin) wooden sleepers, from under which spicy forest grass breaks through. The beginning is sharp, even slightly shocking, but it is this combination of initial notes, heart, and base that, in my opinion, makes the fragrance complete and expresses its philosophy. An example of perfumery art, not the perfume industry. I like it!
Gorgeous scent!!! Rich, intense, resinous. Truly the fragrance of a dense, coniferous, resinous, aromatic, nocturnal, cedar forest. Bought it without testing. Took a risk and didn't regret it. Very satisfied.
