About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Bois d'Argent (2004) is a unisex woody chypre built on an unusual pairing of iris and honey. The top notes of iris, cypress, and juniper berries open cool and slightly bitter, with a powdery iris that soon meets the resinous heart of myrrh and patchouli. As it settles, the base reveals a dense blend of woodsy notes, honey, vanilla, amber, resins, musk, and leather. The overall effect is ambery (100%), woody (98%), and powdery (71%), with a sweet, aromatic finish. This is not a fresh cologne; it is a slow, contemplative scent that sits close to the skin. Collectors who appreciate iris-forward compositions like Dior's own Bois d'Argent will find it rewarding, as will those who enjoy honeyed chypres with a leathery undertow. It suits cool weather and evening wear, and its unisex character makes it equally at home on any wearer. A discontinued gem worth seeking out.

中文簡介

Bois d'Argent(2004)係一款中性木質西普,以鳶尾同蜂蜜嘅少見組合為核心。前調鳶尾、絲柏、杜松子帶嚟清涼微苦嘅開場,粉感鳶尾好快就同沒藥、廣藿香嘅樹脂核心融合。基調由木質、蜂蜜、雲呢拿、琥珀、樹脂、麝香同皮革交織而成,整體以琥珀(100%)、木質(98%)、粉感(71%)為主,帶甜香同芳香尾韻。呢支唔係清新古龍水,而係一支緩慢、沉思型嘅香水,貼膚性強。適合鍾意鳶尾主導或蜂蜜西普帶皮革底蘊嘅收藏家。冷天同夜晚使用最為合適,中性特質令任何人都駕馭得到。已停產,值得尋覓。
