Fragrance Du Bois Male Best Sellers

Description

Five of the deeper, more formal fragrances from Fragrance Du Bois in one Fragrance Du Bois discovery set, so you can wear each one before buying a bottle. The house is known for oud, and three of these are built on it: Sahraa, Oud Bleu Intense and Oud Noir Intense. Lucius and Milano show the other side, with citrus over amber woods and saffron over leather. We call it the Male Best Sellers set because these lean richer and more resinous than the house's softer releases, but Fragrance Du Bois markets every one of them as unisex. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who likes warm, rich fragrances and has never tried the house.

What's Inside

Five 1mL samples:

• Sahraa: grapefruit up top, a heart of rose, geranium and jasmine, then oud, saffron, amber, sandalwood and vanilla. A floral oud with a warm, spiced base.
• Lucius (Parfum): bergamot, mandarin and pink pepper, then orange blossom and cedarwood over amber and tonka bean. Bright at first and smooth later; the easiest of the five to wear.
• Oud Bleu Intense: mandarin, cardamom and nutmeg over frankincense, myrrh and labdanum, settling on oud, benzoin and styrax. Resinous, ambery and lightly smoky.
• Oud Noir Intense: bergamot and cardamom, a rose and jasmine heart, then oud, saffron, sandalwood, patchouli, vanilla and musk. The darkest and densest of the set.
• Milano: Sicilian bergamot, orange, thyme and saffron, then frankincense and jasmine over leather, amber, musk and vanilla. A leather fragrance with no oud in it.

How To Use a Discovery Set

Each 1mL sample comes in a 2mL vial filled halfway, so the vial will look half full. That is the correct amount, and it gives you roughly 15 sprays. Every vial is labeled with the fragrance name.

Wear one fragrance a day, on skin rather than a paper strip, and give it the whole day. The first ten minutes are the loudest and least representative part of any fragrance; judge it at hour three. Once you have a shortlist of two, wear them on opposite wrists and compare. Start with Lucius or Milano, the two without oud, before moving on to the three oud fragrances, so the heavier ones do not drown out your memory of the lighter ones.

FAQ

How much is in each sample?
1mL each, in a 2mL vial filled halfway, which is about 15 sprays.

Is this set only for men?
No. Fragrance Du Bois markets all five as unisex; the set name reflects that they sit on the deeper, more formal side of the range. Anyone who enjoys rich fragrances can wear them.

Which ones contain oud?
Sahraa, Oud Bleu Intense and Oud Noir Intense list oud in their notes. Lucius and Milano do not.

Is this a good gift?
Yes, for someone who already enjoys warm, spiced or woody fragrances. If they mostly wear light, fresh scents, it may feel heavier than they expect; Lucius is the gentlest place to start.

What if I love one of them?
Order a larger decant or a full bottle of that fragrance separately once you know which one you want.
