Bois Blanc

Bois Blanc by Frapin, created in 2020 by Anne-Sophie Behaghel, is a woody fragrance with strong aromatic and citrus facets, plus touches of spice, freshness and amber. Its name, white wood, hints at the pale, dry and airy character of the composition.

Mandarin and bitter orange open with a juicy yet slightly bitter brightness, while eucalyptus, rosemary and sage add a cool, herbal, almost medicinal freshness. Ginger brings a zesty spice. The base is a clean study in woods: cedar for pencil-shaving dryness, guaiac wood for a soft smoky sweetness and cade oil for a light, tarry, campfire edge, all lifted by the mineral glow of ambroxan.

It is worn by anyone looking for a fresh, natural woody scent. The herbal citrus and pale woods suit spring and summer days, office wear and outdoor weekends, and it carries into autumn thanks to its smoky base. It should please people who prefer understated, unsweetened fragrances with a clear aromatic character.
