By the editors · 2 min readFeminite du Bois opens with an unexpected warmth—candied plum and peach steeped in cinnamon, all draped over raw cedar planks. The sweetness never turns fruity in the conventional sense; it feels preserved, almost medicinal, like dried fruit tucked into an apothecary drawer lined with aromatic wood shavings.
As it settles, violet and rose emerge through a veil of spice—ginger and clove that have lost their sharpness but retained their character. The florals never stand alone; they're inseparable from the wood structure beneath them, creating something neither purely floral nor strictly woody but genuinely hybrid.
This is cedar with flesh on it, made tender through sandalwood, benzoin, and a suggestion of vanilla that rounds rather than sweetens. It wears close and deliberate, more suited to someone who prefers their warmth private rather than projected. Despite its name, it resists easy categorization as feminine or masculine—it simply exists in its own textured, spice-dusted universe.
