Bois de Turquie
Fragrance notes
Character
Mandarin Orange, Orange Blossom, and Bergamot give Bois de Turquie a bright, lightly bitter entrance. The citrus feels polished and airy, while Orange Blossom lends a soft floral lift. West Indian Bay brings a fresh spicy edge into the heart, joined by Orris, Jasmine, and Geranium. Orris adds a powdery veil, giving the composition a composed, quietly elegant character.
The deeper phase turns warmer and more resinous. Myrrh and Incense bring ambered balsamic depth, with Sandalwood smoothing the texture and Patchouli adding a dry, earthy thread. The result is woody and aromatic with a gentle floral polish, balancing freshness against a darker base. Its moderate staying power suits people who enjoy a measured presence, and the sillage forms a modest bubble that feels personal while remaining easy to notice in conversation.
Bois de Turquie has a refined unisex profile, with enough citrus for spring and enough warmth for fall and winter. It fits a thoughtful office setting, a dressed-up daytime plan, or a relaxed dinner where subtle detail matters more than impact. Jean-Paul Millet Lage composed the fragrance, launched in 2008, and its structure rewards attention without demanding it. The whole scent settles like a small wooden box lined with orange peel, powdered iris, and warm incense.
