Liquid opium
Bois de Gayac begins with a very soft velvety lotion-like, delicately sweet ripe 'mandarin, which is supported by very small, also ripe, fresh, 'orange sparkles and a very delicate aromatic 'nutmeg spice and one has the feeling of being completely wrapped in silk.

A little later, an incredibly dense, warm, woody, creamy sandalwood note can be perceived, accompanied by a very beautiful balsamic, delicately floral, extremely subtle, sweetly resinous note of cistus and, in the background, an almost fragile, delicately spicy, non leathery note, spicy, not leathery or even medicinal 'saffron nuance in the background and you find yourself in a warm, protective cloud that only opium can evoke in you and you can experience exactly that with this fragrance, without all its side effects.

The base of Bois de Gayac is heavenly sweet and spicy balsamic thanks to the 'myrrh, which is interspersed with delicate threads of 'frankincense and a subtle dark woody note that I couldn't name and occasionally made me think of warm beeswax
Finally, I would like to rewrite Falco's famous song a little:

"I've got no money, you've got no money, who stopped that wonderful scent again?"

The perception of 'pink pepper, 'black pepper was unfortunately denied by my paleocortex and the dark 'woody notes can come from guaiac wood and oud according to the fragrance pyramid.

Overall, the fragrance lasts 9.5 hours on my skin.

The sillage is designed to be one meter from the beginning and indeed until the end of the fragrance and only becomes more transparent as it progresses.

"Serafina, thank you for this wonderful fragrance experience!"
