Frederic Malle's Bois D'Orage


I sniffed Bois D'Orage at Barneys in NYC.I thought it smelled liked warmed hay.The Malle sales associate smiled warmly but indicated with a curt negative head bob that I was way off base. There was an opening note of bergamot with angelica and cedar in the drydown. It was more masculine than I would normally wear but I just could not stop sniffing my wrist.I can only imagine how fabulous this scent would be on the nape of the neck of an attractive man.It is currently available at Barneys in NYC for $185.The listed notes in the Barneys catalog are nutmeg, iris, cedar, cardamon, musk and pimento.
