Bonne Chauffe

Bonne Chauffe by Frapin is a woody fragrance with small touches of spice, sweetness and resin. Meabh McCurtin composed it, it was released in 2023, and it is worn by anyone.

Davana and pepper oil open it with a warm, fruity and slightly boozy spice, davana bringing a jammy, dried-fruit note. In the heart, plum adds a deep, juicy sweetness, oak a dry, slightly vanilla-like woodiness reminiscent of barrels, and bran a toasty, grainy warmth. The base is warm and earthy, with patchouli giving a dark depth, cedar and vetiver a dry woodiness, and benzoin a soft, resinous sweetness.

Warm and mellow, it suits autumn and winter, for evenings, dinners and cosy nights by the fire. The name refers to the heart of a distillation, and the scent has a warm, spirit-like character to match, with oak and plum suggesting an aged brandy. Anyone who enjoys boozy, woody scents with a fruity warmth will find it a smooth, grown-up choice.
