Francesca Dell'Oro Bihaku is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Christian Vermorel. Bihaku opens with Sichuan Pepper, Cardamom, Incense, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Chamomile, and Wormwood, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Tobacco, and Amberwood. Francesca Dell'Oro's Bihaku carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive scent that aims for originality but lands in 'love it or hate it' territory. It's bold, coniferous, and definitely not a blind buy unless you like a particular synthetic amberwood note people mention.

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.

Also Works:
Date Casual

With its strong projection and distinctive character, Bihaku is a bit much for the office. It works best casually or for dates where its unique aroma can be appreciated, but the specific amberwood note might be off-putting in very formal settings.

About

Bihaku opens with a bracing, almost medicinal blast of juniper and sharp Sichuan pepper, immediately commanding attention. Incense and cardamom weave through this potent initial impression, hinting at a hidden warmth. As it settles, herbal chamomile and slightly bitter wormwood emerge, providing an unexpected, aromatic depth that prevents it from being a straightforward fresh-spicy. The base grounds the composition with dry cedar and a prominent, sweet amberwood, rounded out by a subtle tobacco accord.
