Fragrance Du Bois Lucius is a Parfum launched in 2024. Lucius opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Cedar, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vetiver. Fragrance Du Bois's Lucius carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one is divisive; some love it for its versatile, clean amber-citrus profile and call it a masterpiece, while others are thoroughly underwhelmed, citing generic scent and poor performance for the price. Not a safe blind buy, despite the hype.

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.

Its moderate sillage and clean, fresh profile make it suitable for office and casual wear. While elegant enough for dates, some find it lacks the unique character for formal events. The fresh opening might work for sport, but the amber base limits its pure athletic appeal.

About

Lucius opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of bergamot and mandarin, sharpened by a hint of pink pepper. This fresh introduction settles into a sophisticated heart of orange blossom and dry cedar, before mellowing into a smooth, long-lasting base of warm amber and earthy vetiver. It's a modern, versatile blend that projects clean confidence.
