WJL (Bourbon French)

Bourbon French's website gives us no information as to what the initials stand for, a name one imagines in their historical past, but the scent itself stands alone as a beautiful achievement, regardless of its namesake.

“Warm oriental spices with woodsy undertones” is the only description provided and it is certainly accurate. A guessing game as to what exactly is in this proves difficult. There is an excellent musk at work here, as I imagine the civet I think I am experiencing can no longer legally be an ingredient. A smooth sandalwood/cedar/patchouli base is perhaps in place, with some light cardamom and cinnamon laid over.

It would seem appropriate to me for this to be worn year round on all occasions, but especially in the evening for both formal and intimate occasions.

The blend is warm, subtle, inviting, powdery, yet masculine, and is for me one of their very best men's scents (right up there with 525 and Eau de Noir).
