Oro 1920
Bois 1920
A firm & deep fragrance, partially obscure & for that magnetic. An olfactive fantasy opened by an intertwining of elegant nuances of Ginger & Incense, taped by innovative caresses of Firbalsam & spotted by unusual fruity sparks of Raspberry.
Mysterious & sensual notes of Gaiac Wood give off in the heart, completed by the sumptuous floral accord given by the refined & precious Iris & May Rose, nestled between the tender & sinuous Osmanthus & Opoponax.
The dry down is dark & intense, a melange of Tobacco, dense resins (Benzoin & Beeswax) & Vanilla touches which exalt all the Leather force, symbol of class & durability.

Bois 1920 is a brand that expresses the Galardi family’s passion for the art of perfume making which is handed down from one generation to another. Passion that livens up, inspires and carefully enriches their line of 30 fragrances today. Moreover, the raw materials research combines tradition and innovation, for a harmony of unique and charming olfactory compositions.
The story all began in the 1920s when the grandfather Guido Galardi started experimenting the first formulas in his tiny workshop in Florence. He began collecting the Spigo (Lavander flowers) which ripens on the Florentine hills. His pursuit mixes different expressive features: essential oils, scented solutions, perfumed bags.
All these characteristics inspire and shape the brand BOttega Italiana Spigo 1920 (BOIS 1920) which acquires a worldwide importance over the years along with recognised rewards. In 2012 Bois 1920 was selected among the best five olfactory expressions at the FiFi Awards (the Oscars of perfumery) in New York.
