Jacques Fath Velours Boisé is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Luca Maffei. Velours Boisé opens with Mate, Spicy Notes, Bergamot, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Carrot Seeds, Immortelle, Whisky, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood, and Ambroxan. Jacques Fath's Velours Boisé carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly divisive boozy-woody, Velours Boisé is either a sophisticated, mature dram or a disappointing flat fizz. Expect a rugged, earthy kick with an unusual dry character; definitely not a safe blind buy.

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.

Casual

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage make it suitable for evenings and cooler weather. The mature, boozy woody profile lends itself well to date nights and formal occasions, while being too heavy for sport or casual summer wear.

About

Velours Boisé opens with a raw, almost smoky blend of mate, wormwood and bright bergamot before a shot of whisky enters the fray, alongside earthy carrot seeds and the unusual, hay-like sweetness of immortelle. The drydown unveils a deep, sophisticated woodiness, featuring guaiac wood, creamy sandalwood, and a subtle amber warmth, creating a fragrance that feels both ancient and intriguing.
