by Annick Menardo

Guerlain Bois d'Armenie is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Annick Menardo. The fragrance opens with Iris, Incense, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Guaiac Wood, Coriander, and Benzoin, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Musk, and Copaiba Balm.

Our verdict on Bois d'Armenie: Favourite

A truly gorgeous, refined benzoin-incense masterpiece that Guerlain inexplicably chopped. Bois d'Armenie is a sophisticated, comforting scent that everyone seems to be scrambling to get their hands on before it's gone for good.

About

Bois d'Armenie opens with a gentle dust of pink pepper, quickly ushering in a soft, ethereal iris that blends seamlessly. Soon, the warm, resinous embrace of benzoin takes centre stage, underscored by smoky incense and the subtle depth of guaiac wood. It settles into a cosy, almost vanillic amber with earthy hints of patchouli and clean musk, creating a consistently smooth and enveloping aura.
