Bois Imperial

This fragrance is a masterpiece in restraint. It is woody, light, airy and peppery at the same time. I blind bought it not knowing what I was getting but this has easily become my signature scent. It is simple yet has this complexity to how it develops. Starts off as a peppery, slightly citrusy woody smell. Much of the woodiness in the beginning comes from the vertiver and then it develops into this more woody base with the Akigalawood and the woody notes. It still somehow retains its lightness at the same time. It does make for a good wear, lasting about 12 hours for me with healthy sillage from beginning to end. I have already received two unsolicited compliments on this, and I hardly get that. Certainly signature worthy.

I bought this because a reel told me that women will compliment this fragrance on you, so being the dyke that I am I bought the sample from lucky scent and WOW !!!!!! if it weren’t so expensive I would have bought it already. soapy, green, clean, spicy, peppery. smells like freshly washed hair. pretty masculine! I am so obsessed with this and WILL be purchasing for next spring/summer. the Thai basil note is so beautiful and unique. this fragrance really solidified my love for clean scents. and I despise laundry scents! this would be very sexy on a man, just as it would on a woman. it is an absolute POWERHOUSE and will stay on your skin allllll day and night. you seriously have to shower this one off.

Went to this fragrance store today and turns out they were selling only niche perfumes and i was like, now i know where to get niche if i wanted to, anyways we had a lovely conversation with the store employer and there was a topic about what niche people buy the most, and she showed me this bois imperial parfum, so i tried it and it is very fresh she told me that people keep buying this and i do see why, it is a fresh non offensive scent that is perfect for daily wear, for office, for gym, for pretty much anything to be honest, and the price for that well, you be the judge for that: 90 euros, i mean hey it is a niche at the end of the day.

We go way back when I first smelled it on a friend, I could trace Bois Imperial on my hair for hours after I hugged my friend goodbye. Being a gourmad girl since always, I can't pinpoint the exact moment this perfume altered my brain chemistry but I can tell you I have been complicated again and again, and if by chance I catch a whiff of it from a passerby on the street, I feel an instant lift in my mood. Personally I fomd it the most value for money perfume I own so far, gorgeous basil & akigalawood, overall a pleasure to be around. I'm the only woman I know in my life wearing it and I find it very attractive worn by men.

To me this is another Bisch classic, well put together, lingering but affordable. I feel that for me this is a unisex scent rather than leaning more masculine or feminine. It makes me think of a autumnal late Sunday morning walk in a woods, with lots of red and orange leaves crunchy on the ground, there’s that calm lull feeling when the clocks fall back, days are short, there’s a roast in the oven back home, waiting to be devoured, but while we are waiting we’ll pass time kicking up some leaves, counting robins and meandering. This smells of that, a kind of comfortable treat that everyone will enjoy
