Real talk
Annick Ménardo built this around the sweetest gum resin in perfumery, benzoin, the ingredient most perfumers use sparingly because it demands space. Here, she gives it a stage.Bois d'Armenie
Not a fragrance that fills the room, fills you instead. The benzoin works close to the skin, almost shy, but what it gives over 8 to 10 hours is worth every milliliter of the price.Benjoin Bohème
