I picked it up at Sephora on my last trip to the US, just when I was out of cash. I did everything possible to take it home as it seemed spectacular. The trail isn’t very potent and, given the price and packaging, I expected more. However, it’s that unique scent you can’t find anywhere else. If you’re not a fan of sweet scents and are looking for something unisex and fresh, I’d recommend this option. Though, given the price, I don’t think it should be a blind buy.
I picked this up at Sephora during my last trip to the US, right when I ran out of cash. I did everything in my power to take it home as it seemed spectacular.

Something curious happened to me with this: I didn’t detect any of the listed notes. Rather than woods, it smells of cinnamon (perhaps due to the sandalwood and pink pepper blend), slightly creamy with a spicy touch. It reminded me of Obsession, but much softer and friendlier. At first, it felt unisex, but after half an hour it leaned towards feminine, sweeter with a floral touch, probably vanilla with freesia or orchid. The projection was low at the start, then stayed close to the skin for about three hours before fading. This house has good scents like Book, Moss, and this Bois, but unfortunately ‘they all limp with the same leg’: low performance and inaccessible prices (100ml for $135). I wouldn’t recommend it due to the price and longevity, though if you try it, there’s no harm. By the way, a sample was my Valentine’s Day gift and nobody wanted it 🙁
