What does Le Boisé smell like?

Sandalwood and woody notes form the core, vanilla rounds off the dryness, and a little pepper adds a spicy edge. Among the accords, the fresh and fruity sides come forward while the resinous, earthy and smoky tones stay in the background.

Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring. It leans towards daily wear and the office, and voters read it as masculine. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Mazzolari Mazzolari and Arte Profumi Ecclesiæ have a close profile.
