One should not expect avant-garde from a fragrance that carries "Vintage" in its name and comes from a collection that deals with memory or déjà-vu. Instead, one finds a reference to tried-and-true models and archetypes. The names of the two fragrances in this mini-collection set the direction: While "Ambra Mediterranea" has been written about comparatively extensively, "Boisé" leads a somewhat shadowy existence; somehow, this fits the fragrance's understated character, as Ambra Mediterranea is in every respect a bit louder.
So, no avant-garde. Nevertheless, one can have fun with this fragrance. It is particularly well-suited to demonstrate the ambiguous image effect:
After a brief citrus flash, the bergamot remains perceptibly in the background, the focus shifts, Boisé becomes silver-green, cooling, bright vetiver, a fragrance to wake up to. The geranium, half rose, half mint, somewhat waxy, sets the stage for the bright herbal, gently soapy lavender. Together, the two, geranium and lavender, now determine the direction of the fragrance - sweetened and softened by a few drops of honey. In the dry down, Boisé hints at something oriental, grounding itself, becoming warmer, balsamic, perhaps a bit creamy, yet without losing its character: Boisé reveals its floral facets, it is a fresh, slender floral scent.
That is one perspective. Alternatively, one can also focus on the woody aspects and thus experience the other side of Boisé: the heart of the fragrance is then no longer green, menthol-like, floral but dry and woody. The cedar. However, this is not a common pencil wood cedar, but a high-frequency, almost metallic cedar, a hard cedar, so no childhood room reminiscences here.
It is pleasant that the synthesis works as well, especially because the cedar comes across so high-revving, it meets the lavender on a level that suits it well; the French meadow pairs nicely with the Italian wood ("Boisé" ... the French name of a fragrance from the Ligurian Sea...). Boisé presents itself as a fougère-like aromatic, woody and shimmering silver, young wood, delicate resin; elegant, but more dynamic than stiff, determined and somewhat cool, transparent, but not colorless. It also fits nicely into the (fragrance) picture that the Texas cedar, technically speaking, is a juniper.
I have the impression that not only was there an investment in the elaborate, solid bottle, but also a decent amount of money was spent on high-quality fragrance materials - and should I be mistaken, I would find the result hardly less impressive. Boisé is an "all-day wear," easily lasting through a normal workday and not even particularly close to the skin.
The different faces of Boisé also fit well with the accompanying story, a hike past woods and meadows. In the same story, it is described how the young perfumer (name not clearly transmitted) enjoyed the tranquility of Versilia while around him people protested against injustices ("[...] while all around the world seethed with protest and marches: Versilia, isle of happiness in the magma of the Sixties.", Website Profumi del Forte). This seems too naive and reactionary to me, despite all my enthusiasm for Boisé and respect for the fragrances of Profumi del Forte. Sometimes I wish perfume houses would refrain from such texts. (There is also a story about the - as mentioned - impressive bottle and the label, and a code reader that is supposed to convert the genetic key of the fragrance into sound. A bit obscure, especially since research yielded no current details on this.)
Be that as it may: great fragrance.
