Karim — Bois Sauvage
Karim — Bois Sauvage
Some fragrances announce themselves. Bois Sauvage simply arrives — clean, grounded, and entirely self-assured. An aromatic fougère built for the man who knows exactly who he is.
The opening is sharp and invigorating: rosemary and clary sage cut through the air with an herbal clarity, lifted by the bright citrus edge of lemon verbena. Fresh without being casual — precise and intentional from the first breath.
At the heart, lavender absolute takes centre stage — not the synthetic kind, but the real thing, rich and slightly camphoraceous. It is joined by the green warmth of geranium and the cool resinous depth of fir balsam, creating a composition that feels both natural and refined.
The base is where Bois Sauvage earns its name. Guaiac wood brings a smoky, slightly sweet woodiness, while Iso E Super adds that elusive skin-like quality that makes a fragrance feel like it belongs on you. Oakwood accord and clean musks round out the dry-down — warm, lasting, and quietly powerful.
