Bois Impérial · Eau de Parfum

Bois Impérial, a woody and spicy eau de parfum by Essential Parfums. A bold, sensual olfactory signature, built around a rare wood, Akigalawood.

Woody spicy

At the top, freshly crushed Thai basil leaves release a green, spicy freshness. The heart pairs Nepalese Timut pepper absolute, with its peppery and citrus facets, with a green, earthy Haitian vetiver lifted by Georgywood and its cedarwood tones. The base, vibrant and lasting, lets Indonesian patchouli and Akigalawood reign — a patchouli upcycled through biotechnology — supported by a note of Ambrofix. A creation by Quentin Bisch.

Expert tip

It all started with a rare, extraordinary wood, Akigalawood. I adorned it with fresh spices to build a great woody of contrasts — the green liveliness of Thai basil against the earthy depth of patchouli. Bois Impérial is that controlled tension between brightness and warmth.
