16.1 Bois Naufrage by Pierre Guillaume Paris is creamy, warm and comfortable.

 

Perfumer Pierre Guillaume treated wood of the Egyptian fig tree as drift wood that gives this woody perfume a surprising freshness.

 

Quote from The Non Blonde’s review of Bois Naufragé:
“Inspired by a 1971 picture by photographer Lucien Clergue, “Nu au bois flotté “, a nude female body with driftwood, Guillaume achieved a similar sensuality in his perfume. There’s something about the smell of a fig tree that takes you there instantly. Combined with a salty ambergris and warm skin, Bois Naufragé smells like late afternoon on the beach. The day is gone, the sun is low in the sky, smells, regrets and feelings are intensified as the breeze picks up. There’s a faint hint of tanning oil from hours ago and clean musk. The sea is foaming at your feet, filling your senses with its aroma: airy and green. The fragrance is vegetal, not ozonic/aquatic or “fresh”. It’s romantic, sexy and heartbreaking in a way you used to know in your youth and even more so now, as you’re looking back.”

Creations from perfumer Pierre Guillaume all have a strong character. This classically schooled chemist is an independent perfumer who works from his studio in Clermont-Ferrand, France. The use of innovative ingredients shows that he has a solid foundation in chemistry and a hunger for creation. One of these innovations he uses is a process called photo-refining: the flattening of olfactory peaks via ultraviolet radiation. This technique gives his perfumes their special characteristics, for example the characteristic liveliness in 02 Cozé or the melancholy in 05 l'Eau de Circé.

Woody fragrances are full of character and indeed very woodsy. They can be warm, soothing and creamy, but also dry and spicy. Key ingredients are cedar wood, patchouli, sandalwood and/or vetiver. Oudh (agarwood), Palo Santo and guaiac wood have also joined the perfumer's palet, just like the fantastic synthetics such as Javanol or Iso-E-Super.

Pierre Guillaume

When he was just 25 years old, Pierre Guillaume launched his first perfume called Cozé. Chandler Burr, renowned and respected perfume critic, described this fragrance as 'the coolest of new European fragrances from a young French chemist'. That was the beginning of his career and his own perfume house: Parfumerie Générale, which is now called Pierre Guillaume. Pierre Guillaume uses innovative processes to create fragrances. You can recognize his personal style in his perfumes, with high-quality scents that remain perceptible on the skin for a long time without overpowering.
