Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bois d'Armenie EDP
A truly gorgeous, refined benzoin-incense masterpiece that Guerlain inexplicably chopped. Bois d'Armenie is a sophisticated, comforting scent that everyone seems to be scrambling to get their hands on before it's gone for good.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Intenso di Sandalo Extrait
Intenso di Sandalo is a deep, meditative woody-amber extrait built around sandalwood and an imaginary black wood, smoky and refined. It is made for those who like their fragrances dark, intimate and slow to unfold.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bois d'Armenie

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its refined and warm character makes it ideal for dates and formal events, creating an elegant impression. While its projection is generally subtle to average, it's suitable for office wear, but less so for casual daytime activities or anything sporty due to its rich, resinous profile.

Intenso di Sandalo

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Smoky sandalwood, frankincense and dark amber read as deep cold-weather warmth; winter is the anchor with autumn close behind, and it is far too heavy for summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Intimate projection with serious, refined depth suits formal evenings and date nights; the contemplative, smoky character is too heavy for casual daytime or sport.
