≈ $110 · 100ml · approx. retail
Gentleman Boisée is a warm spicy-woody EDP that pairs a peppery, herbal opening with an addictive cocoa-and-iris heart over creamy sandalwood and patchouli. Created by Olivier Cresp and Nathalie Lorson, it is the richest, most wood-forward interpretation of the modern Gentleman line.
