The fragrance's atmosphere 

A collection of perfumes designed by Serge Lutens in his own image! Minimalist, straight, angular and uncompromising, each absolutely pure bottle reflects the exacting standards and uncompromising character of its creator. It's a sobriety that feels like a manifesto, highlighting the richness and sumptuousness of the fragrances and colours that are as varied and nuanced as the precious stones and facets of our personalities.   

Here is the olfactory description of Bois Vanille by Serge Lutens 

Mexican black vanilla: A specific variety of vanilla, Mexican black vanilla, is often richer and more complex in aroma, bringing a seductive depth to the vanilla notes. 

Sandalwood: Sandalwood, with its creamy woody aroma, adds an earthy dimension to the composition, complementing the sweetness of the vanilla. 

Liquorice: Liquorice can add a sweet, slightly spicy and aniseed touch to the fragrance, complementing the sweetness of vanilla. 

 General sensation 

Bois Vanille seems to offer a rich, complex interpretation of vanilla, combined with the woody elements of sandalwood and the aniseed-like sweetness of liquorice. Together they create a warm and seductive fragrance, balancing the deliciousness of vanilla with the depth of sandalwood and the spicy subtlety of liquorice. This olfactory composition is likely to appeal to those looking for sweet, woody, gourmand fragrances.
