Kenzo Homme Boisee

Kenzo + Polge = Success. Kenzo made it again!. "Kenzo pour homme boisee" is an aromatic/spicy and soft, woody gorgeous scent. This new fragrance is supposed to be a flanker to the 1991′s "KenzoHomme" They have nothing at all in common (the only real similarity being the shape of the bottle and a salty trail). That doesn't mean that it will be a big dissapointment for all the original "KenzoHomme" lovers like me, as long as they don't expect something as unique as the 1991's original. It starts fresh and slightly spicy. There is a lively explosion of a salty refined vetiver, sexy mint and a background of spicy basil. The herbal side of mint and basil is fresh and brilliantly light yet intens. Even though, it never becomes overpowering. Being honest, at this stage, I was afraid, as the opening really blew my mind and I was scared, presuming that it could react as "Tokyo", when, after the top notes, the whole perfume lost all the character. This is not happening in "Kenzo Boisée": the mint accompained by the glorious vetiver shows their presence all the way through, so the perfume becomes rather linear but deliciously addictive. During the heart and the drydown, the linear formula changes a little with the soft, airy, light cedar accord. Here, the wood seems almost secondary, where the previous notes from earlier reign above all. So this is not a deep woody perfume as it has been advertised (Thank God). If you are looking for a real, light wood scent, you better go and sample the CDG "Wonderwood". "Kenzo pour Homme boisée" is a magnificent, well put together fragrance. Yes, it is salty but not as the original one, and also it is spicy and woody but nothing like "Jungle Homme". It has the perfect balanced amount of very carefully (and intelligently) chosen ingredients By Polge. Some people will compare it with the original and it will probably receive bad reviews without justice because they may find it a little mainstream compared to any other of the Kenzo's fragrance line. I have to agree, but also, I'm happy to say that this new launch will have success in terms of being the best mainstream launch of this year for two simple reasons: 1. Polge always made great perfumes and this one is not an exception. 2. It leads us eventually to the woodiness side that everyone expects, making the scented trip really memorable. "Boiséé" is not as loud as "KenzoHomme" and not as quiet as "Power". It has its own place in the middle, having a distinctive projection and a really good lasting power.

Kenzo Homme Woody (also called Kenzo Boisée in some countries) was released in 2010, inspired by the look and the connection of the man with the energy of the earth and the immensity of the sky, as if he was the tallest tree, in a path with no limits. It is almost unknown and poorly commented. But it is a masterpiece of perfumery that, unfortunately, is no longer manufactured. It has notes of mint and basil, in the output; Rosemary and pepper from Madagascar, in the heart; Haiti vetiver and Atlas cedar, in the base. When it touches the skin is minty and sweet. This freshness merges with a completely aromatic nuance, dotted by a touch of pepper. The base is woody, with greater presence of cedar and its camphorated and balsamic nuances. To me, it seems that the vetiver doesn't even exist. During the evolution, it can makes you remember many other creations. In my case, I think of Burberry The Beat. The bottle kept the visual identity, in a mix of gray and amber colors, which resembles wood. In my opinion, is one of those fragrances without defects: is versatile, is elegant, exudes well, has great durability and, furthermore, was made by Olivier Polge.

I'm revisiting this one years after I first got it and I must say it's turned out to be one of my most successful blind buys. I love how the mint and spices in the opening contrast with the woody base and keep it from being too earthy or dry. It's a green and woody fragrance for sure but has an invigorating quality to it. I enjoy wearing it on my evening walks during the summer and fall. These older Kenzo fragrances from the 2000s and 2010s all had so much character, it's too bad they all got discontinued. The new line created by Quentin Bisch gets generally good reviews but got boring to me pretty quickly.

Once upon a time, I had this beautiful, masculine, woody fragrance. Ever since, I've never been able to find a pure woodsy scent that excites me as much as this. It is an easy first adventure into woodier scents for those less familiar, as both the spices (basil, mint, rosemary) and cedar notes used here are safe and complimentary to a lot of skin tones. If memory serves - it's been a few years since I've run out of this one, sadly - silage and longevity are comfortably powerful without being too domineering. This is an incredibly "manly" scent in the bearded lumberjack sort of way.

Somewhat misleading bottle in that this isn't a "woody" fragrance, but rather a minty, herbal one. It's both relaxing and refreshing and pretty well-blended; the mint in the opening is not overpowering and you get plenty of herbs and a soft vetiver in the drydown. Performance is an issue for me. As the opening fades this fragrance sits very close to the skin. I can barely smell it after 4 hours, which is a real shame, because this is good stuff; it just doesn't jump off the skin like I'd want it to. The scent itself is a "love," however.

one of the best fresh, green & woody perfume. lemon, pepper, mint and clean vetiver. این کار با نعنای تازه، فلفل و لیمو شروع میشه و همون اول کار خواب رو از سر آدم میپرونه :) در ادامه فلفل محو و نعنا و لیمو ملایم میشن، و به مرور وتیور قوی و قوی تر میشه و در نهایت با کمک وتیور، نعنا و ریحان یه عطر سبز و فرش رو خواهیم داشت.به نظر من خیلی بوی چوب نمیده، بلکه بوی شاخ و برگ درختان جنگل رو میده. یه حس تازگی و واقعا با طراوت از خنکای یک جنگل در فصل پاییز بطور خلاصه؛ تلخ سبز فرش ترش وتیور ریحان نعنا لیمو 7.5/10

This relaxed, watery, masculine fragrance is very versatile but particularly perfect for rainy days. I like it a lot and I'm bummed out it's been discontinued. I associate Kenzo Homme Boisee with L'eau d'Issey Pour Homme. Not that they smell all that similar, beyond a certain watery freshness, but I think they have a similar vibe. I can see the same man wearing L'eau d'Issey when it's sunny, and Kenzo Homme Boisee on cloudy days.

This begins with an overgrowth of herbs: mint, basil, and I also get some dirty tarragon. As it dries, some polite vetiver and a stick-like rosemary tame down the leaf-bomb opening. After a full day at work, I can detect clean cedar if I sniff my collar. I wear this almost every day. Two sprays to the neck. A few times, after trigger-happy mornings, colleagues have told me I smell especially clean.

Really memorable fragance,comfortable and manly, ..a gentle wet aromatic smell of fresh herbals and woods mixed in a soft and organic atmosphere of fruits dry flowers and warm spices, the smell represents an intimate and sensitive relation of nature through the olfative sense. For day or night, cold or warm weather boisee stands in a balanced place.

I like this. very herbal and woody scent. Longevity is very good. Lasts a full work day on me and projects really well all the time. So I don ́t understand complaints on poor longevity at all! :) This is good quality stuff and very well made by Olivier Polge. The top and base notes remind me a lot of Guerlain Homme Intense.

This is a very allround versatile kinda frag. Wear to work, night out, formal, casual.. not a beast of projection but it will get you noticed. Especially in the morning' if you spray it'll give u and people around u a feeling of cleanliness. Again' versatility is the key to this one. Just started using my second bottle...

I LOOOVVEE this scent. It has some likings to Eau Savage Extreme and Aqua di Parma. It's easy for me to get back to it more and more. Longevity for more than 5 hours. I'd like mixing it up with Terre de Hermes for a night out. It's refined and potent. Just how I like it. Freshly chic.

Warm aromatic woody. The earthy vibes from vetyver and pepper notes surprisingly remind me of Terre d'Hermes and Burberry the beat(I tried all of them on the same day in duty free). Design-wise, this one is a very artistic bottle greatly represent the scent itself.

This is a great natural peppery herby wood smell. I am loving this one. I get more of the mint than I do the basil and the basil notes are the reason I bought it. Great frag either way!

Another cool one from Kenzo. It’s a modern smelling woody/herbal blend with cool citrus and natural vetiver. Very well balanced with enough depth to be taken seriously. Bravo.

@gabriel: KB performs well on clothing. Just spritz your shirt or t-shirt underneath a few times and it projects all day. No problems with stains btw.

the opening scent is very sharp and i have to hold my breath for about 10 seconds. the vetiver on the basenote is very relaxing. i love this fragrance

I do love this one real beauty and manly. this is the best perfume for me so far. feels like lost in tropical jungle. love, love and love

And i pray it gets not discontinued in some years.. Overbearing review by henri345que..
