Bois 1920 Scuro is a Parfum launched in 2023. Scuro opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, Pepper, and Incense, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Sichuan Pepper, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Amber, and Guaiac Wood. Bois 1920's Scuro carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A brighter, more approachable incense offering that's surprisingly cheerful. Some find its longevity a let-down, especially considering the price, but those who love it, really love it. It's a fresh take on a classic idea, though perhaps not groundbreaking.

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.

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

Scuro opens with a vibrant, peppery kick, mingling with a bright bergamot and a distinctive elemi resin that lends an airy, almost pine-like aspect. As it settles, the initial spice gives way to a soft, floral jasmine heart, subtly spiced with cardamom. The dry down is a comforting embrace of creamy cashmere and guaiac woods, underscored by smoky incense, warm amber, and a touch of vanilla sweetness, grounding the earlier brightness in a meditative depth.
