What does Bois Roi d'Agalloche smell like?

Patchouli, oud and amber notes sit together as a single body rather than separate layers. A spicy, resinous warmth leads, an earthy and animal edge roughens it, and a touch of oriental sweetness stays in the background to soften the whole.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and leisure and evening wear come first, with night out close behind. The masculine reading leads slightly, though the feminine vote is sizeable too. Gucci The Voice of the Snake and Rituals The Ritual of Oudh have a close profile.
