Voyage à Paris Fragrance Du Bois for women and men

A lovely honeyed floral with slight booziness. A warm vanilla & oak infusion floats in the background with a touch of oud adding depth and interest. I sense a slight pattiserie accord & touch of chocolate nuances as well. A chic Parisian cafe. A staple in my collection.

This is such an amazing honey fragrance. I pick up a little animalistic oud which helps tone down that “syrupy” smell honey has

This is what I classify as a masterpiece 🤌🏽

I imagine this is how walking by a bakery in Paris on a rainy evening would smell like... it's a classy woody honey scent with a gentle animalicness in the background and a similar airy sweetness as MFK gentle fluidity gold (aka my all time favorite fragrance).
The only minus with this, is the PRICE.

I love this sweet honey marigold scent but not candy-like, with a slightly woody base.
The vanilla is just a whiff around and the honey is not syrupy.
The oud is just a little hint like the oud in La Capitale.
It's a very well-blended sweet fragrance that you are not easy to pick out the single note.
The performance is above average, a better one in FDB.
Many FDBs doesn't last well on my skin.

Yes, I blind bought this…but…
This is growing on me…
First spritz is VERY much oud-y, in a most pungent manner but that dissipates quickly to leave room for the boozy notes. Then comes the honeyed vanilla note, it is d i v i n e ✨✨✨✨🍯🍯🍯I absolutely love this part! The woods are present and I very much get that in the dry down.
The reason why this is a like and not a love yet is because that oud note in the beginning is quite off-putting. We are talking about smelly oud here. You know, as in a hint of 💩 👈🏼 so…yikes….but I think that I will let this stay put and revisit in a couple of weeks to see if it settles a bit.

Edit 2/21/2024:
Never mind about letting it settle for a while. I tried it again today and oh my goodness, what a beauty this fragrance is!!! Honey, sprinkled with boozy spices, vanilla in the background and florals in the back background…the woods and oud are there but on the very edges. This is delightful ✨✨✨I am in love 🤩😍

i think i'm in love. i was losing hope in my vanilla search after so many lackluster, unrefined powdery messes of fragrances but this is incredible. sweet addictive vanilla drizzled in sticky honey, a slightly woody base bringing incredible depth. i love rum and cognac in perfumes like this when executed well.

This is one of the only vanilla based fragrances I like. Incredible depth & being a du bois the quality is second to none. I love fragrance du bois & this is definitely not my favorite from the house but it's deserving of the hype it gets. If you like vanilla based fragrances DO NOT HESITATE! Longevity and sillage is above average.

Boozy honeyed rum, tame vanilla, white florals, and oak.

Scents in this categories are often too sticky sweet or too artificial for my tastes. This one is not only perfectly balanced but it provides a lot of depth which keeps the wearing experience interesting.

Excellent honey note, NOT the powdered variety, vanilla is light, rum is delicious, jasmine floating in the background, and a warm woody oak note in the base.

Best FDB I’ve smelled and I’ve tried most. Definitely FBW.

This one is a more interesting scent from this house. I can’t say it’s a love for me at this point, but I have not worn it a lot yet. I can see this being a signature worthy scent because it is not really gourmand and nor is it a floral. Davana is really prominent on top, but jasmine is really present in the dry-down. It is unique and versatile. Have not tested it during spring and summer, but I believe it will work well during any season and in the morning as well as in the afternoon and evening. To me this is feminine, not unisex (my husband said that it smells totally female and would not even try it on himself). A must sample first, not a safe blind buy by any means, but can truly become a one and only signature if you click with it.

To me, this opens up strong with the florals (Orange Blossom and Jasmine) along with a nice hint of sweetness. As it starts to dry down, the notes of honey, vanilla, and that fading booziness start to shine. The Oud is honestly undetectable here.

The opening might come off a little more feminine leaning, but I believe it sits perfectly in the unisex range once it dries down a bit.

Overall, this is an absolutely delightful and luxurious scent. I cannot say that I’ve smelt anything that resembles it, but if I had to, I’d say that it’s in the same vertical as Unique’e Beverly Hills Exclusive. They definitely don’t smell the same, but I’d categorize them in within the same genre.

I’m yet to fully wear this, but from the few sprays I’ve laid on my arm since I got this bottle, it definitely lasts for a good while.

Certainly worth a try.. what a beautiful creation!

Profumo buonissimo! Il brand Fragrance du bois è una garanzia di qualità.
La fragranza è opulenta e lussuosa, persistente e di lunga durata ma comunque molto elegante...Secondo me non adatto per essere indossato sempre, ma ottimo per occasioni speciali...

Raspberry, pear cognac, almonds, suede and a touch of tonka.
This one is hard to decipher but oh so pleasant to wear.
A boozy, (definitely not sickly) sweet fragrance. One of the most interesting things released by this house so far.

Just incredible.
To be candid, first looking at the notes and in the first moments of trying a sample, i thought i knew what this was going to be about and was ready not to be impressed:
Boozy vanilla with a light orange blossom of good quality but was expecting it to be banal and among the countless offerings of amber vanilla scents.
And then wow!
Hours and hours of pure beauty.
I sampled it at night and it lasted well into the next morning.
Even my wife commented how gorgeous the scent is, while she rarely comments on fragrances.
I have now ordered it.

This is one of the best from Fragrance du Bois. It’s sexy enough for a night out, yet it could still be a signature scent. I think so many people would find this one appealing. It’s woody, sweet, and a little powdery. The florals are there, but not very prominent It performs well, but definitely not a beast. The price is high, so definitely sample first.

Edit: This has quickly become one of my favorite cold weather perfumes. I don’t know that I will wear it much in warm weather. It is an opulent fragrance that is so addictive. It’s the perfect sweet, boozy Oud.

This is a sexy perfume!! On me it's a little smokey and rum forward. I get some sweet florals and as it dries down the vanilla comes out more. The honey note makes it a little syrupy, but it's not extremely sweet on my skin. I actually really like this, I like it a lot more than Lovers.

First impressions. Opens quite sweet for a brief few mins and reminds me of candied banana with rum in the background.
That kind of dies down early and the jasmine and florals start to come out. Still get traces of rum.
After all that dries down, the vanilla and woods come out.
Not super long lasting but I’m sure it’ll get better over time. Not a bad little fragrance and I’m sure I’ll warm to it more as I get a few more wears.

Thanks Mrs_ysl

I was considering a sample also, but not interested in dominantly smoky either.

Changed my mind. Ordered a sample.

I have just received my sample, on my skin opening is way too smoky (oud probably?) and even after an hour it is still dominantly smoky with a hint of honey and vanilla.
