Matiere Premiere Bois D'Ebene, Sample
Bois d'Ebene by Matiere Premiere is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men, crafted with an artful balance by the perfumer Aurelien Guichard. Introduced in 2019, this scent opens with the crisp, slightly pine-like aroma of juniper berries, offering a fresh and invigorating introduction. The juniper berries create a bright, yet subtly spicy top note that awakens the senses and sets the stage for the deeper elements to follow.
As the fragrance transitions to its heart, the rich, smoky depth of guaiac wood emerges. This wood note is smooth and creamy, enveloping the senses with its warm embrace. The interaction between the guaiac wood and the earthy patchouli adds complexity, as the patchouli brings its characteristic dark, slightly sweet earthiness into play. This combination creates an atmosphere of elegance and intrigue, weaving a tapestry of timeless sophistication.
In the base, the scent settles into a grounding blend of cypriol oil, also known as nagarmotha, and patchouli, layered with a whisper of vanilla. The cypriol oil adds a dry, slightly leathery nuance, complementing the lush patchouli. This foundation is both robust and refined, exuding a quiet confidence. Bois d'Ebene is a fragrance of rich texture and depth, appealing to those who appreciate modern niche perfumery with a dynamic, complex character.
