Bois Sacre Élixir Privé, brought to life in 2020, sits firmly in the category of a unisex fragrance, belonging to the wood and gourmet families. The author of this composition is Dominique Preyssas, and that explains a lot. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Behind this fragrance stands France and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Bois Sacre is built as a layered story, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The signature of Élixir Privé is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum emphasizes the depth and body this composition needs.
The accord architecture is built around these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Fruit with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Wood and Powdery enrich the profile without taking over. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
In the top tier you detect radiant lemon-bergamot opening notes: Citrus accord, Honey, Myrrh and Patchouli.
In the heart you notice Bergamot, Cypress, Forest Berries and Iris holding a pure citrus-floral direction.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Citrus, Sweet, Balsamic and Wood. The framework further includes Fruit, Floral, Gourmet and Drinks.
Taken together Bois Sacre holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best experienced through real development.
