Bois Impérial – Extrait de Parfum – 30ml

The wooden deck of the rooftop terrace still holds the warmth of the day as the sun slowly slips behind the houses. The afternoon heat is still hanging over the rooftops, but with every minute it turns into something gentler. In the distance, the first lights start coming on one by one, turning the city into a glittering sea. Between the raised beds it smells of soil and herbs, less crisp than it did in the morning, warm and familiar instead, like coming home after a long day. The armchair is right where it was this morning, like an old friend who waited patiently.

Bois Impérial Extrait opens with pink and black pepper, its sharpness softening quickly. At the heart there's rose, more dark and spicy than floral. The base of fir balsam, Atlas cedar and labdanum is resinous and warm, and it stays close to the skin for hours. A dense, woody scent that brings to mind a warm evening on a city rooftop.

Tip: Bois Impérial Extrait is the evening, the Eau de Parfum the morning. If you like things fresher and greener, take a look at Bois Impérial Eau de Parfum.
