What does Joli Bois smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. It suits daytime, leisure and the office, and it reads as both masculine and feminine.

It opens with bitter orange, bergamot and grapefruit for a fresh citrus start. In the heart, green leaves, angelica and orris root pull it towards green, earthy ground. It dries down on cade juniper wood, cedar and frankincense, woody and resinous with a spicy edge. Robert Piguet Bois Bleu and Odur Pinus have a close profile.
