Our Verdict - Classic Paradise Eau de Parfum
Bois 1920's Classic Paradise is a weirdly addictive, fruity-floral blend that manages to be both 'niche' and surprisingly familiar. It's a bit divisive - some find it generic, others totally unique - but it clearly leaves an impression.

Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
