Bois Nomades by Chopard Reviews & Perfume Facts

Chopard is bringing new additions to its Gardens fragrance collection. Three new fragrances, Bois Nomades, Patchouli de Sumatra and Santal Odeyar. All three have joined Chopard with wood themes. The f ... ocus of the new trio, developed by perfumers Alberto Morillas and Dora Baghriche, is on ethical sourcing and sustainability.

These fragrances are in line with Chopard’s sustainability ethos, which began in 2013. By choosing to source responsibly, the house realized that true luxury should be ethical and responsible.

For the co-president and artistic director of the brand, Caroline Scheufele, a perfume is personal, it allows you to express your personality. She is the muse behind the new fragrances: Santal Odeyar, Bois Nomades and Patchouli de Sumatra. “They are the embodiment of a vision, that of Caroline Scheufele. This vision is not projected on a white screen, but on the skin, on a cashmere sweater, in the hair or in the air around us, and everyone can tell the story in their own way,”

"I decided to work with perfumers I knew – Alberto Morillas and Dora Baghriche – because, just like in my jewelry studio, I surround myself with people who are dear to me," Scheufele explains. Master perfumer Alberto Morillas wanted to create a garden that looked like a thousand and one nights. Morillas also created Bois Nomads.

Bois Nomades, known as Garden of Kings comes in an elegant blue bottle. You notice that it has a woody element but is unique to the other two scents. It is clean and strong. Its woods are the cedar of the Moroccan Atlas and the Aquilaria (Agar) of Sylhet which comes from the northeast of Bangladesh, which also produces Oud. Damask rose from Turkey is at the heart of the fragrance. Cinnamon from Sri Lanka, black pepper from Asia, hookah accord and clove oil from Indonesia are the top notes. And Atlas Cedar from Morocco, Oud Assafi, Frankincense from Somalia, Cypriol Nagarmoth from India, Myrrh from Ethiopia and Somalia, Opoponax from Somalia and Styrax from Honduras make up the background notes. Its ingredients make up the travelers of the past and the continents they have crossed.
