Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Bois Corsé smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, sitting close to both.
Sandalwood and cedarwood build a woody frame, while Arabica coffee and tonka bean carry it into a gourmand sweetness. Sweet, gourmand and spicy notes lead the accords, softened by powdery, creamy and resinous touches, with a faint smokiness in the background.
