THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE BUCOLIQUES DE PROVENCE : wannabe, wafting, cleanser WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE TO ME: A gray goose…kind of pretty, but not as pretty as a white swan, a little annoying and not as fun as a duck. Inspired by the savoir-faire of artisans in Grasse, an accord of leathery lavender, modernised by iris and spices. Bucoliques de Provence is modern in its pure and naturalistic approach. The perfumer has combined lavender and leather with iris and spices creating a soft, faceted scent. Perfumery in this region with its distinctive lavender fields, dates back to the 17th century and is linked to the historic production of leather. This perfume pays homage to the history of Grasse. It marks the beginning of a new collection inspired by different regions of France. The perfume becomes soft and kind of pretty…but unfortunately I’m left with a headache caused by the kitchen witch developmentīucoliques de Provence is a limited edition fragrance. After quite some time, the iris comes back in with a light powder and the kitchen witch begins to dissipate. Instead I am getting a dried flower kitchen witch vibe…and that’s not a good thing. Supposedly there is some leather in here, but I’m not picking any of it up. After quite some time, the lavender turns to a laundry detergent familiarity and the perfume feels like it should be used as more of a bed or room spray. What used to be calming, now has an unfortunate bite. At the same time, the spices really come forward…actually, in a quite caustic manner. As the perfume continues to develop, it begins to flatten and it takes on a more woody consistency. the standard powdered dry lavender that we associate with the note. Soon, a mix of herbs and spices pepper the lavender, making the perfume feel a bit chewy vs. It’s slightly medicinal, but very comforting and in all it’s just so pretty and calming. WHAT I SMELL: Not surprisingly, Bucoliques de Provence opens with a soft cashmere iris which is soon met with a deep brown sugared and herbal lavender.
