Parfumerie Generale – Bois Blond

Perfume: Bois Blond
House: Parfumerie Generale
Source: Swap – BlackCat
Size: 1mL

Luckyscent Notes: cereals, grass, galbanum, cedar, hay, blond tobacco, amber, musk

Date: 1/15/09 Weather: 25 degrees, breezy

Comments: Brief herbal / hay top – then woods and dill pickles. In 10 minutes, turns to woods and sweet pickles. Not offensive. Kinda strange, though. After an hour’s worth of wear – pick up black pepper, a hint of vanilla and cedar. Quite lovely. Very close wearing. During the 2nd and 3rd hour – evolves into a vanilla-laced sandalwood. Hovers here for a bit. Hour 6 -vanilla musk. Still close-wearing. Not catching much on the sillage – only when I make an effort to smell my wrist. Finally completely gone in 8 hours. Much prefer it after an hour of wear. The first hour is a tad nervewracking.

Date: 3/29/09 Weather: 65 degrees, sunny

Comments: Cedar pencils and pepper. Quickly goes to a musk / galbanum / hay. Hint of vanilla. Becomes vanilla / tobacco / musk blend. Gone within 4 hours.
