What does Boronia smell like?
It opens with cognac, chamomile and labdanum, then moves into osmanthus, suede, boronia and black tea. In the base, tolu balm, caramel, driftwood and myrrh take over, so the floral part rests on a warm, woody and faintly leathery sweetness, with the spice staying in the background.
Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Voters place it mostly in leisure, daytime and office wear, and less often in evenings or nights out, though the vote count is small, so this is only a rough guide. Created by Bertrand Duchaufour, it has a profile close to X-Ray Morphine and Etat Libre d'Orange Vraie Blonde.
