  Fragrances for the ‘few’. A bit denser due to spices compared to the original. A bit longer-lasting on skin due to higher concentration (about 10 hours at skin level). A bit darker due to reinforced woods in resins and labdanum. A bit more expensive with very little liquid in its new 30 ml format. A bit recommended, the original EDP version is still better since they practically smell very similar… only if you’re a fan, and even then I’d recommend you think about it 2 or 3 times. A bit of enthusiasm wouldn’t have hurt Mr. Quentin Bisch, especially after a couple of years of his redundant and increasingly boring repertoire. Anyway, a fragrance recommended only for fans of the original; if you don’t have any, I push you to buy the EDP version; this is just another exploitation by Mr. Quentin to exhaust every possible idea from the Ganymede DNA. Final rating 6/10.

  Good perfume, rich and lasting notes. On skin for 10 hours, projects well for 2 hours with a good trail. High price, but those of us who collect will never finish the 30 ml. Having the EDP, buy this only if you’re collecting.

  If you already love the original Bois Imperial, you’ll adore this one. On my skin, it lasts just as long as the EDP, but projects less, which is normal for an extrait; however, it smells much stronger than the smaller version. It’s darker, with 99% identical DNA to the launch (Akigalawood and ambroxan notes, plus a touch of rose in the middle that fades away, leaving the same trail as the EDP). If you already own the original and like it, this is redundant; but if it’s one of your favorites and you’re a fan of Bisch, it’s a must-have. Be careful with the sprays: the original lasted 5 or 6 sprays, here two leaves you in the neighboring province. In short, equally delicious, more potent, darker, same longevity, but the price is excessive.

  An extrait that will delight those who already use and enjoy the original Bois Imperial. On my skin, longevity is equal to the EDP with slightly less projection (expected in an extrait) but a much more crushing potency than its sibling. Darker, with a 99% similar DNA to the original launch (here there is Akigalawhite, though they don’t name it, and ambroxan too), with a touch of rose in the heart that disappears at the end to leave a scent identical to the EDP. Redundant if you have the EDP and enjoy it as is, but mandatory if it’s one of your signature scents and you’re a die-hard fan of Bisch, like me. Watch out for the sprays: where the original allowed you to blast 5 or 6 times (trigger joy), here two sprays are enough unless you want people smelling you from the neighboring province. In conclusion, just as delicious as the original, more potent, darker, with the same longevity, with the only caveat being the price, which is excessive.

  I don’t expect much life from this ‘money pit’. Less projection, and when I say less, it’s very, very little. Fewer nuances. And what I least expected is less longevity. I categorize it as a ‘money pit’ because when you pull an extrait, you know it will project less, okay, I don’t know if that little, but we pass. It should have more nuances, but what do I know? They wanted to simplify it, okay. But what can’t happen is that I spray the original 2 hours earlier at home, go to the mall to test it, and 3 hours after applying it, it’s gone, while the less dense one blasts just like the original Bois Imperial. Damn it, 12 hours after putting it on, I still feel bursts, and the extrait hasn’t lasted even 3 hours. Anyway, today’s perfumery. Disappointing.

  The Bois Imperial Extrait is exactly as described, a darker and heavier version of the bestseller. I own both, and when comparing them, you notice a beautiful, well-crafted rose that gives it that nocturnal and elegant vibe. There’s been a lot of talk about longevity and projection; the EDP is already outstanding on my skin, but this is another level: it lasted 2 days with showers in between. It’s incredible and doesn’t cause olfactory fatigue like its sibling. Its price is 130 euros/30 ml; maybe it’s not justified by the great similarity to the EDP, but if you’re a fan of the Bois Imperial DNA, you’ll love it. Versatile for all seasons, day and night. I would avoid using it in the middle of summer because its tremendous intensity can be overwhelming.

  I’ve gone through two bottles, and given what this perfume is, they lasted several days. I like it, but I have mixed feelings. This extrait blends wood accords of varying intensities: varnish at the start, resins, and clean, warm wood at the end. As a nature lover, I adore these scents even if they are synthetic; however, this perfume ends up tiring me out a bit, feeling cloying, as it stays intensely in your bubble without causing olfactory fatigue. Regarding the criticized price, it seems expensive but not overpriced, considering it’s not for everyday wear: it’s for occasional use in cold weather with about 3 sprays. The 30 ml bottle can last years, and with a couple of samples, you almost cover the whole winter.
