Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
Bois Richeux launched 1178 in 2011 — and it was a brilliant move.
Country of origin — France, and that already says something about the quality. 1178 Bois Richeux — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
This fragrance is like a great story: once you've tried it, you keep coming back. The official website of Bois Richeux — http://ugit-fragrances.com/.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of 1178 is built as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The signature of Bois Richeux comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Aromatic, Green, Spicy and Ambery. It also reaches into Musk.
Right at the start you sense spicy-green opening notes: Basil, Lavender, Mint and Thyme. These 4 notes shape pure fougère elegance that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
When the opening settles you notice Celery, Clary Sage, Fennel, Laurel and Rosemary carrying a lavender-sage direction. In what remains on skin the line is anchored through Ambergris, Clary Sage and musk, shaping a deep amber trail.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Musc, Amber and Spicy without random overlap. Additional accords such as Vegetable add depth to the backdrop. The gender direction is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
In summary 1178 holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best experienced in wear.
