by Houbigant
Bois Mystique by Houbigant is a refined, classically masculine woody fragrance with a fresh, spicy opening dominated by cardamom, ginger, and black pepper, layered over a foundational accord of cedar, guaiac wood, and incense. The scent evolves into a warm, semi-sweet woodiness enhanced by amber and musk, creating a linear, balanced profile with a delicate, smoky aura. It carries a distinct incense and pencil-shaving quality, reminiscent of Royal Oud but with a more natural, less opulent character. The fragrance feels modern yet rooted in tradition, evoking elegance and quiet sophistication—ideal for autumn and winter wear. While its projection is subtle and performance modest (lasting moderate to long on some skins), it maintains a lasting presence as a skin scent, particularly in its later stages.
