What does Bois Pacifique smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, with summer well behind. Most voters read it as masculine, though it is a unisex scent.

A fresh, sweet feel runs through it, with oak wood absolute, sandalwood and cedarwood forming a woody frame. Cardamom and turmeric add spice, while frankincense brings a resinous, slightly smoky backdrop. Orris butter softens the whole, and Akigalawood® adds a dry, synthetic woodiness.
