Robert Piguet Bois Noir Eau de Parfum

Yes... An aroma that you need to get used to, that needs to be aired out. In other words, you need to get used to the first hour of its sound, then there is a pleasant base, and both guaiac and cedar are audible all the time. I struggled for a long time with what the perfume smells like immediately after application... Then I remembered: an old abandoned railway line in the forest, heated by the summer sun, impregnated with creosote (which, by the way, includes products of guaiac resin distillation) wooden sleepers, from under which spicy forest grasses penetrate. The beginning is sharp, even slightly shocking, but it is this composition of initial notes, heart, and base that, in my opinion, makes the aroma complete, expresses its philosophy. An example of perfumery art, not the perfume industry. I like it!

Amazing fragrance!!! Thick, intense, resinous. Truly the scent of a dense, evergreen, resinous, aromatic, nocturnal, cedar forest. Bought it without testing. Took a risk and didn't regret it. Very satisfied.
