A Noble Drop from Florence

Finally, a real men's fragrance! I can hardly imagine it on a lady, unless she has to shave daily............
This strong, spicy, and warm scent starts off nicely robust, but without being intrusive. It doesn't annoy, and it is a dark, spicy, and classically elegant scent that is not easy to describe. In any case, it is made of very high quality and ideal for mature gentlemen. Not a fragrance for very young men in jeans and sneakers. It doesn't work there. With a well-tailored suit and good shoes, it is a wonderfully elegant scent. I cannot detect the dill note often mentioned here; it is a black herbal scent with the finest leather and amber, mature vanilla (not sweet, bright sugar vanilla), and cedar. I am sure it will become a classic, but only for a small target group. Why the fragrances from this house are so little talked about is truly a mystery. I suspect they don't send free packages to certain "influencers," and that's why they are not known. This is genuine good niche quality. And a hidden gem. Longevity and sillage are ideal.

If you love dill, you'll get your money's worth here!

Phew, what a heavyweight!

So to start, I must say that this fragrance is not for the faint of nose!

Let's begin with the journey!

The opening features a strong start with a very dominant dill note. Dill is not really my spice, and herbal scents are also not really my thing. Thus, the start was truly a tough challenge for my nose! But what does one endure to possibly discover the most wonderful fragrances? :-)

I appreciate the dill note, as it is not listed among the notes; it is created through the combination of saffron, orange, and bergamot, and possibly also through the addition of clove.

As I said, very much a matter of getting used to! But those who like dill will probably love and enjoy it.

In the background, one can sense a slight woodiness that becomes increasingly dominant.

Over time, the perception of dill recedes further, but it remains ever-present; however, the strong nuances then take center stage, and thus the fragrance remains until the end. In the drydown, a light vanilla note paired with a hint of leather joins in and definitely makes it more pleasant. Still, not a please for my nose.

Longevity and sillage are very good, unfortunately to my regret :-D I really tested it until the end, even though I often felt the urge to wash it off.

As I said, those who like dill will simply love this fragrance! Unfortunately, it is not suitable for my nose.

Black Inkpot

Sublime scent with an opening of ripe fruits, saffron, and cocoa...as it develops, a prominent oriental spice note becomes noticeable, before musk, sandalwood, and molasses successfully lead into the drydown. Vanilla and leather accord are well listed, but unfortunately not detectable for my coarse olfactory bulb.

Overall, a fruity-spicy, special fragrance that seems well-suited for both everyday use and special occasions. Longevity and sillage meet the expectations of a scent in this price category.

The bottle is typically cylindrical for Bois 1920 and entirely black with a wooden cap. As a result, the embossed black brand logo is difficult to decipher. A gold inscription on a black bottle would, in my opinion, appear more elegant and sophisticated and would better reflect the name of the fragrance.
