More about Dior Bois d'Argent
Bois d'Argent is a refined, powdery woody-chypre centered on a silvery iris top accord (iris + juniper/cypress), a resinous incense/myrrh heart, and a warm, honeyed-vanillic woody base with amber, musk and leather. It reads as a close-to-skin, powdery-resinous fragrance: airy and powdery at first (iris, cypress, juniper), smoky/balsamic in the heart (myrrh/incense/patchouli), finishing warm and slightly sweet with honey, vanilla, amber and soft woods/leather. Notes (compiled): Top -- iris, cypress, juniper berries; Heart -- myrrh, incense, patchouli; Base -- honey, vanilla, amber, resins, musk, woody notes, leather. It is often described as elegant, understated, and "second-skin" in character.
