Bois du Portugal certainly has an older style, a more mature and classy take on fragrance and it succeeds in everything it does. Forget your Invictus type of fragrance, this isn't your typical generic fresh aquatic with some sweet elements to appeal to a younger and hip audience. This one is different, this is for someone who wants to create an impression that will last.
BdP follows all the tropes you expect from a Fougere, it uses a lovely citrus opening as a bait and once it hooks you it sends you through a journey of lavender, vetiver, patchouli and woods that will leave you in awe. It's a timeless piece of perfumery cause it certainly has all the elements of a dated fragrance but it feels modern, it feels actual, it's just... timeless (there's no other word to describe it).
To me this may be one of the best Creed fragrances out there, this based on my batch 19R01.
