The Story

Launched in 2016 by Chanel, Boy Eau de Parfum is a fragrance that bridges the gap between fresh aromatic tones and powdery warmth. Created by Olivier Polge, this composition opens with a bright citrus-aromatic blend of lavender, grapefruit, and lemon before transitioning into a heart of geranium, orange blossom, and rose. The base notes of white musk, heliotrope, sandalwood, vanilla, moss, and coumarin create a warm, enveloping embrace that feels both fresh and comforting.

Application Tips

Apply one generous spray to your pulse points and let it settle for five minutes before heading out. The citrus notes fade within two hours, but the powdery musk base lingers close to skin, making it perfect for daytime wear.
