Bois 1920 Come la Luna is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008. Come la Luna opens with Lemon, Cardamom, and Tarragon, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Jasmine, and Galbanum, and dries down to a base of Amber, Birch, and Oakmoss. Bois 1920's Come la Luna carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly divisive vintage-style chypre that some adore for its sophisticated green-woody depth, while others find it too old-fashioned, medicinal, or overwhelmingly masculine. Definitely not a blind buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage mean it's present but not overpowering, suiting formal and date settings where a touch of classic elegance is welcome. However, its polarising vintage green chypre character might not be universally appreciated in a casual or office environment, and it's too heavy for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Come la Luna opens with a sharp, almost medicinal burst of Sicilian lemon and aromatic tarragon, quickly joined by the warm, spicy kick of cardamom. The heart delves into a green, earthy realm with galbanum and patchouli, softened by a hint of jasmine. As it dries down, a classic chypre base emerges, anchored by the rich, damp earthiness of oakmoss, the smoky nuance of birch, and the resinous warmth of amber.
