Bois d'Ébène

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters pick fall and winter, followed by spring. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out, with room for office and daily wear too. Most voters read it as masculine, though it stays unisex in spirit.

Nagarmotha, Brazilian cabreuva, Paraguayan gaiac wood and Indonesian patchouli build a woody body. A spicy, resinous warmth sits on top, while sweet and creamy accords soften the edges. The earthy, smoky side gives the scent its dark tone. Yves Rocher Nouveau Genre and Diptyque Oud Palao have a close profile.
