Description
Description
London Spice is Fragrance du Bois's bright, energetic take on the English capital, part of the house's Fashion Capitals collection, released in 2021 by perfumer François Merle-Baudoin. A brisk burst of spearmint and lemon opens over a cool marine breeze, before jasmine and lavender soften the edges; cardamom, nutmeg and cedarwood settle it into a warm, spiced woody base. Unlike the house's darker, agarwood-forward ouds, this one leans fresh and unisex, a crisp daytime fragrance built for movement.
