A sophisticated office scent
Bois Mystique by House of Houbigant, aside from Duc de Vervins, I just cannot find bad fragrances by this house. It is amazing how a house can make such beautiful and amazing scents. I find that all of their scents are classic scents, meant or could be worn with a suit, or formal clothing.
In the opening of the fragrance I miss the pink pepper, or miss, I do not smell it, I like it however, that I do not smell the pink pepper. The neroli comes greatly forward in my opinion, and creates a versatile freshness. I have a tester of this fragrance, and what stood out to me is that Bois Mystique is less strong than the other fragrances, Tabac Nomad, Oud Or or Patchouli Sauvage, which is not nessecarily a bad thing of course. I think that it flatters this fragrance even more, because this fragrance is not meant to be a shouter. The sillage is for me around 30 to 40 centimeters which I think is great. Not all fragrances should have astronomical large sillages, depending on the fragrance on where to you will wear it, the sillage should be adjusted.
From what I smell, Bois Mystique could be worn to any occasion, just like the designer fragrances like Bleu de Chanel and Dior Sauvage. I sprayed Bleu de Chanel on other wrist than Bois Mystique and something very interesting happened. Bleu de Chanel came forward as sweeter than usual after I smelled Bois Mystique. Back to Bois Mystique itself, creamy, clean notes come forward with a hint of spices or wood. For me this fragrance would be one I would were to whatever, a fragrance I would put on if I do not know what to wear or just do not want to think about what I want to wear. It is a great fragrance, a great fragrance which is good at many if not all occasions, but not the best at all occasions. However this fragrance is one of the best office fragrances I know of, it leaves me speechless if I try to explain why. The only words that come to mind is that it is clean, creamy and soft.
Definetly a recommendation!!
