Excellence

Franck Olivier Excellence is an Eau de Parfum. Excellence opens with Sandalwood and Iris, settles into a heart of Incense and Cedar, and dries down to a base of Musk and Pepper. Franck Olivier's Excellence carries a Statement verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This budget-friendly clone of Bois d'Argent serves up a seriously sophisticated woody iris straight to your door. The performance might be shy, and some question the iris claim, but the sheer value makes it a winner for an everyday touch of luxury.

Its generally shy projection, despite some reports of longer longevity, makes it suitable for office and casual wear without overwhelming. The woody and musky accords lend it an understated elegance, but it lacks the power for formal events and is certainly not for sport.

About

Excellence opens with a creamy, rich sandalwood, soon joined by a soft, earthy iris, though some say it's more of a powdery effect than a true floral. The heart unfolds with dry cedar wood and a subtle wisp of incense smoke, adding depth without being heavy. It settles into a clean, musky base with a hint of warm, spicy pepper that grounds the whole composition.
