Bijan Bijan is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1986, created by Peter Bohm. Bijan opens with Bergamot, Neroli, Orange Blossom, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Orris, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Bijan's Bijan carries an Acquired verdict, a powdery-led wear.

Bijan is a divisive, full-bodied 80s classic that inspires fervent adoration among its fans, blending honeyed warmth with unapologetic florals. It's a statement, not a whisper - you'll either love its golden glow or find it a bit much.

About

Bijan bursts forth with a boisterous bouquet of orange blossom, ylang-ylang, and narcissus, quickly softened by a rich, golden honeyed embrace. As it settles, a sophisticated heart of carnation and jasmine unfolds over a deeply sensual base. Creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, and warm amber mingle with hints of vanilla and musk, creating a luxurious and enduring silage that wraps you in a comforting, opulent aura once the initial floral intensity mellows.
