Bois Blonds
Bois Blonds by Atelier Cologne is an unisex eau de cologne from 2010 in the premium price tier. It opens with neroli, bergamot and petitgrain, moves into orange blossom, pink pepper and frankincense and dries down to musk and haitian vetiver. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
Heart
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Haitian Vetiver Cleaner, smokier vetiver with a grapefruit lift. Less earthy than Javan.
