I discovered Bois d’Armenie in February 2022 when a kind fellow fraghead sent me a sample. I took it with me on the road when I went to Warsaw to help my parents evacuate from Ukraine. BdA helped me deal with the stress and anxiety while I was way from home for a couple of weeks. I felt its warm, sweet, calming embrace in the mornings and resprayed at night to help me fall asleep.
After I came back and reunited with my collection, I realized that BdA is a lot like Shalimar EDT’s dry down. It is essentially Shalimar less the bergamot opening and no leather.
