Fragrance Du Bois Heritage Extrait

Description

Heritage is Fragrance du Bois's haute-couture, old-money composition, a sophisticated pairing of sparkling aldehydes with classic florals, incense, and a genuinely agarwood-driven woody base, a combination rarely seen outside vintage-style perfumery. Created by perfumer François Merle-Baudoin and launched in 2016, it opens with an airy, clean aldehyde-bergamot top, moves into an orris-and-jasmine heart, and settles into sandalwood, cedar, vanilla, and real oud.
