The Story
Bois d'Orange is a warm, woody citrus that feels like a sun-drenched forest. The bitter orange peel and petitgrain create a sharp, green opening, while the heart of orange blossom and clove adds a spicy floral touch. The base of cedar, sandalwood, and musk gives it a creamy, lasting warmth. It's a sophisticated scent that balances brightness with depth.
