Bois Des Iles

Product

In 1922, the Le Boeuf sur le Toit cabaret opened in Paris, immediately becoming the epicenter of the avant-garde. Those nights of the Roaring Twenties inspired Gabrielle Chanel to develop BOIS DES ÎLES, a sensual and spicy fragrance that transports you to the tranquil, unknown waters of distant islands, filled with rare flowers and enchanting scents. This creation is part of the LES EXCLUSIFS DE CHANEL collection.

BOIS DES ÎLES Eau de Parfum is a scented voyage to far-flung shores. This interpretation, born from the effervescence of 1920s Paris—when jazz filled cabarets and artists pushed boundaries—captures the era’s fascination with faraway places. Precious sandalwood from New Caledonia became the heart of this olfactory journey, a treasure from the Pacific that embodies both warmth and refinement.

Composition

BOIS DES ÎLES Eau de Parfum is a woody fragrance with an enveloping olfactory signature. It features notes of sandalwood, enriched with ylang-ylang, rose, jasmine and iris, elevated by the luminosity of aldehydes, bergamot and mandarin. The composition is further adorned with tonka bean, vanilla and ambery notes, wrapping everything in subtle sophistication.
