Bois Impérial, released by Essential Parfums in 2020 and composed by Quentin Bisch, is mainly woody, with smaller aromatic and amber touches.
Timur, a Nepalese pepper with a grapefruit-like zest, opens it with a tingling, citrusy spice, and basil adds a green, slightly aniseed herbal freshness. The heart and base are built on modern woods: Akigalawood brings a peppery, patchouli-like woodiness, woodsy notes a clean structure, vetiver an earthy, rooty dryness and patchouli depth. Ambroxan gives a radiant, slightly salty and ambery warmth that carries the scent on skin and clothes.
Most wearers report that it lasts a long time, with some finding it almost endless, and the majority describe its sillage as strong, so a light hand is sensible. People vote for it mainly in spring and summer, and most see it as a daytime scent, though a good share wear it at night too. It is meant to be worn by anyone and suits people who want a clean, modern woody scent with presence for the office or everyday wear.
