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.

About

Déclaration Bois Bleu opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon, bergamot, and bitter orange, creating an immediate sense of invigorating freshness. This lively citrus quickly intertwines with the green, slightly smoky nuance of birch leaf and the clean, earthy depth of vetiver. A hint of cardamom and nutmeg adds a subtle, warm spice, preventing the scent from becoming purely aquatic, as it settles into a smooth, refined woody base of teak. It's a crisp and natural aroma, evoking a walk through a sun-drenched forest near the coast.
