Launched in 2017, Bon Parfumeur's 401 cedar, candied plum, vanilla is a composition where the warmth of cinnamon and the smokiness of incense mingle with the rich sweetness of candied plum. The fragrance opens with elemi and bergamot, providing a fresh aromatic contrast to the deep woody base of cedar and sandalwood. This unisex scent is a study in contrasts, combining the crispness of citrus with the richness of amber and vanilla.
Composition & Character
How It Wears
Application Tips
Due to its concentrated parfum formula, just one or two sprays are enough. The fragrance blooms slowly over time, so it's best applied in the morning for a full day's worth of depth and complexity. It pairs particularly well with cooler evenings when the warmth of vanilla and plum can be fully appreciated.
