Voyage a Paris
Voyage a Paris is the 2023 10th anniversary release from Fragrance Du Bois, composed by Kevin Mathys as a tribute to the brand's Parisian origins. Released as an Eau de Parfum (also available in Extrait concentration), the composition pairs boozy rum and orange blossom with honey, davana, and a sustainable oud base for a Parisian-gourmand signature that distinguishes it from the brand's more wood-focused releases. Aromatica carries the Fragrance Du Bois Voyage a Paris decant in Bangladesh, so the cleanest way to test whether this anniversary release earns space alongside the brand's flagship oud releases is to wear it before committing to a full bottle.
Fragrance Notes
Top: Rum, Orange Blossom, Tagete
Heart: Jasmine, Honey, Davana
Base: Oud, Vanilla, Oak Fusion
The Scent
The opening is boozy and sweet from the first spray. Rum arrives rich and slightly syrupy, joined by orange blossom for floral lift and tagete (marigold) for an unusual green-herbal edge that prevents the top from going pure dessert. The opening reads more dressed-up than playful, with the rum signaling that the composition leans toward evening rather than daytime wear. The heart develops into a honey-and-florals chorus. Jasmine pairs with davana for a fruity-floral richness, while honey provides a dense, sticky-sweet anchor that runs through the composition for most of the wear. The fruity-floral-honey combination defines the middle and gives the composition its Parisian-patisserie character. By the dry-down, oud, vanilla, and oak fusion take over for a warm, woody-resinous finish. The oud here is restrained rather than dominant, providing depth without going medicinal, while the vanilla smoothes the base and oak gives it structure. Community reception splits between calling it a polished gourmand oud and finding it too synthetic or too sweet for the niche price tier. Performance is moderate to good, with four to six hours of audible wear and moderate projection on most skin types.
When to Wear
Reserved for fall and winter, especially evenings, dinners, date nights, and dressed-up occasions where a boozy honey-oud signature fits the room. Hot weather amplifies the rum and honey into territory where the composition reads cloying rather than elegant. It belongs in the Dates and Nights collection alongside other warm, sweet-leaning niche compositions.
Who Is It For
For someone exploring Fragrance Du Bois beyond the brand's iconic oud releases and wanting to try the more gourmand direction the house has developed in recent years. It also suits anyone building a niche cool-weather rotation around boozy-honey-oud compositions, especially wearers who like Parfums de Marly Layton or Floris Honey Oud and want a similar profile in a different brand framework for variety in the rotation.
The wider Fragrance Du Bois range covers other directions worth exploring after settling on whether this gourmand-oud direction suits personal taste. For other niche woody-sweet options at Aromatica, the Gourmand and Sweet collection covers adjacent honey-driven and boozy compositions across the niche tier. For Parisian-gourmand alternatives in a different brand framework, the broader niche range at Aromatica offers comparison options across various price points and house signatures worth sampling alongside Voyage a Paris.
Stocked at Aromatica as an authentic decant in 3ml, 5ml, and 9ml sizes, with same-day dispatch on in-stock sizes.
