Which Should You Buy?
Bois Noir is a divisive, woody beast - a sophisticated autumn walk in a bottle for some, an acrid, headache-inducing pencil shaving for others. Try before you buy, but if the dark woods speak to you, it's a stellar, unique choice.
A properly robust, woody-amber affair that commands attention without shouting. It's a modern classic in the making for those who appreciate depth.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
This is a strong, dark woody scent more suited for cooler weather and evening wear. Its intensity and resinous nature make it less appropriate for everyday office use or sporty activities, but perfect for a formal event or a mysterious date night.
Seasons
Built on woody, amber and fresh spicy - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its dominant woody, amber, and leather accords, coupled with its robust character, make it a superb choice for dates and formal events. While a touch too bold for a strict office environment, it's refined enough for a professional evening out and intriguing for a stylish casual setting.
