At its best in Fall and Winter, a touch more in the evening.
Parisian by Fragrance du Bois is a Oriental Floral fragrance for women and men. Parisian was launched in 2016. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Cardamom, Grapefruit, Pink Pepper and Almond; middle notes are Agarwood (Oud), Rose, Geranium, Jasmine and Leather; base notes are Incense, Labdanum, Sandalwood, Amber, Patchouli, Oakmoss and Musk. With an opening gambit of cheerful spice provided by pink pepper and cardamom, Parisian (earlier known as Parisian Oud) develops smartly with a top note of grapefruit, quietly tempered with subtle almond. The body opens into a medley of florals, supplied by rose essence, white jasmine and geranium, before leather and Fragrance Du Bois’ 100% pure, natural Oud builds the fragrance into a complex, sophisticated symphony. Cistus labdanum and frankincense then add rich, resinous notes to a base that evokes an almost ethereal smokiness, with sandalwood and patchouli easing the ensemble into a ‘soft leather chair’ of a fragrance.
