    Bois Farine translates to "Wood Wheat", and that is exactly what this smells like: freshly cut wood with a generous dusting of flour. It's dry, toasty, woody, reservedly sweet, and incredibly...

    This is a delicious scent to wear for yourself, not for others. Mostly it creates more of an aura of mature sweetness for me, rather than a "what perfume are you wearing?" moment. I have read that...

    You know those confidence boosting statement perfumes that can stop others in their tracks for good or bad but will certainly get noticed. Truth be told I love some of them. And then there is...

    This and its slightly honeyed, winter queen sister L'eau d'Hiver are two fragrances that I have difficulty depicting. I think both are powerful, deep and complex fragrances despite their surface...

    I love Bois Farine. It's my favorite L'Artisan and I own 4 of them (the other 3 I have are Passage d'Enfer, La Chasse Aux Papillons, & Vanilia). I ordered Bois Farine unsniffed roughly a year...

    I don't know what it is about this perfume, but I love it. I have had the bottle for about a year now. I use it in the cooler weather as it just seems to go with the cool. It has a nutty smell...

    This is a really unique scent. I would classify it as a 'sophisticated gourmand'. Wear it and you'll smell *reminiscent* of something delicious, almost good enough to eat. Without nessecarily...

    My journey started 5 years ago when I first discovered L'artisan. When I went to the counter, I fell in love with Bois Farine! I'm guessing the saleswoman hated it because she told me it very...

    Peanut-y, sugary, floral gourmand. Sweet and dry at the same time. Not really powdery in any traditional way, thoroughly unique. It is also the most snuggly fragrance I know.

    Notes: Ruizia Cordata, fennel seed, iris, benzoin, sandalwood, cedar, gaiac wood.   This fragrance starts with an accord that smells like like flour, salt and nuts. It is rather dry and indeed...

    I want to like this one more than I do. Bois Farine is one where I think reading the description in advance has altered how I smell it, or how I think I smell it. In the beginning, I think that...

    To me it's a gourmand perfume. Also, a comforting smell. Warm, but not too sweet. The perfume keeps its balance and does not become cheesy and cheap. It begins with a peanut buttery tone along with...

    This is quite an interesting scent to say the least. Upon initial application it is a strong blast of natural peanut butter....not the yummy sweet kind. It smells like a fresh piece of cedar wood...

    Yup, peanut butter.But it fades quickly to a powdery floral/musk arrangement. It's a bit clean but definitely powdery, approaching baby powdery at points, which I don't do. Final fade is powdered...

    “I smell peanut butter!!!” says my four-year-old. Darn it! I really don’t like the smell of peanuts, and I hadn’t initially identified the nuttiness to be peanutiness specifically, but now that she...

    If you like this, but dislike the pricetag, you must try "Max Mara" by Max Mara, which is a über-sweetened version of "Bois Farine". Both perfumes are "Floral Woody Musk's". But the sugared "Max...
