Lignum

8.2

Buchoed · 2025

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Buchoed Lignum is a woody, spicy unisex scent that suits autumn and winter evenings, with its sweetness resting on a powdery, resinous base. Sandalwood, Atlas cedar and juniper wood form the woody frame. Cardamom and tobacco add a spicy warmth, while vanilla and labdanum keep the sweetness soft and resinous. Iris brings a powdery touch, and white grapefruit lightens the weight a little. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine sit close together, so it reads as genuinely in between. Lattafa Liam and Birkholz Black Weed have a close profile.

Rosa Nigra

8.1

Buchoed · 2025

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Buchoed Rosa Nigra is a sweet, resinous and smoky unisex scent built around rose, honey and oud. Rose and honey give it a floral but richly sweet character, which vanilla and tonka bean soften, while labdanum, frankincense and styrax add a resinous depth. Oud supplies a smoky, woody backdrop, and the spicy, oriental side of the scent dominates. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring well behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out. Both its longevity and its sillage are rated as good. On character, feminine votes edge ahead, with masculine votes close behind.

Dulcamara

8.2

Buchoed · 2025

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Buchoed Dulcamara is a sweet, resinous and woody unisex scent led by oakmoss, benzoin and iris. Longevity is rated good while sillage stays moderate, so it sits close rather than filling the room. Voters lean towards evenings and nights out, with leisure and daily wear close behind. Office wear is the least chosen use. Vanilla and tolu balm soften it, while benzoin adds a resinous warmth. Iris and ambrette bring a powdery floral side, and gaiac wood and oakmoss carry the woody, earthy base. Magnolia leaf adds a faint green touch to the sweetness.

Borealis

7.7

Buchoed · 2025

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Buchoed Borealis is a unisex scent for spring and summer days and relaxed daily wear, with a fresh, citrusy and green character. Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, while winter is chosen by only a few. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, with fewer votes for nights out. Bergamot and neroli give it a bright, citrusy start. Rosemary and geranium carry the green side, and galbanum makes that greenness sharper and more resinous. Sandalwood and vetiver lay down a woody base, so the scent stays clean rather than heavy. Ermenegildo Zegna Italian Bergamot and Roger & Gallet L'Homme Vétyver have a close profile.
