Bois Datchaï

by Dorothée Piot

Maison Crivelli Bois Datchaï is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Dorothée Piot. Bois Datchaï settles into a heart of Incense, Cedar, Papyrus, and Guaiac Wood. Maison Crivelli's Bois Datchaï carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Bois Datchaï is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it affair that promises woody sophistication but delivers a curveball of fruit and controversy. Some find it a unique tea-and-berry delight; others smell straight-up body odour or curry. Blind-buying this one is a truly risky game.

The strong woody and smoky accords, coupled with mixed signals on sillage and performance, make it less ideal for a formal office setting. However, its unique and intriguing profile, even with its polarising cumin-like facets, could make it a conversation starter on a date or for casual outings. Its performance isn't consistently strong enough for full all-day wear but offers moderate projection for a few hours.

About

Bois Datchaï opens with a vivid burst of blackcurrant, tangy and almost jam-like, quickly interwoven with aromatic tea notes and a whisper of warm cinnamon. As it develops, a dry, almost papery cedar and guaiac wood accord emerges, underscored by earthy patchouli and smoky incense, creating a complex, albeit polarising, woody-fruity narrative. It's a journey from bright, wild berries to a deeper, more contemplative forest floor.
