Autumn / Winter must have

Benjoin Boheme is a very warm amber / benzoin fragrance.
Yes, this is not a deep, dark, resinous scent. Nevertheless, it belongs to my top ten autumn / winter fragrances. It is a soft and elegant scent that is very sophisticated and well constructed. There are many good warm resinous scents out there, but this one is quite special. Perhaps it is Angelica here that gives the scent both a certain coolness and warmth. The scent is not complex, yet the ingredients are chosen so high quality, which makes the scent so exceptionally good. It is somewhat reminiscent of roasted chestnuts - warm, woody, nutty. It is slightly sweet without going towards gourmand. This slightly sweet vanilla accord comes from benzoin. By the way, this benzoin pepper accord is slightly reminiscent of Enigma (Roja). The slight nuttiness comes from patchouli.
This is an extremely attractive amber fragrance that I really enjoy wearing.
Because of the deep, beautiful woody warmth and the exquisite quality of the notes, this fragrance leaves a very pleasant, high-quality and warm impression.
For me, the fragrance is unisex, with a very slight bias towards masculine.
Fragrance lasts very long, but sillage and projection are rather mediocre.
Is it worth a blind buy? Oh yes!!!

Clear buy recommendation on my part

Embracing the warmth

Upon my first encounter with Benjoin Bohème by Diptyque, I was immediately transported to the enchanting, tranquil landscapes of Laos. The aromatic journey this perfume takes you on is nothing short of a luxurious escapade, with amber and spicy notes that evoke the warmth of the sun's embrace and the mystique of the Orient.

The star of this composition is the benzoin, a balsamic resin with a warm, vanillic character. In Benjoin Bohème, the benzoin shines like the most precious gem, revealing its multifaceted nature through its sweet, rich, and slightly smoky essence. The heart of this perfume is adorned with the sultry whispers of peru balsam, adding a caramelized, lustrous touch to the amber accord.

The symphony of notes in Benjoin Bohème is artfully balanced, with bitter and leathery nuances that prevent the sweetness from becoming overwhelming. This eau de parfum strikes a chord with the soul, inviting introspection and meditation, as if gently persuading the wearer to savor the present moment. The smoked quality that develops as the fragrance settles on the skin further enhances the spiritual and contemplative atmosphere it evokes.

As I trace the lines of the bottle, with its unique craquelure glass design, I am reminded of the delicate sillage of Benjoin Bohème. The scent lingers like a quiet whisper, a soothing murmur that persists rather than a piercing shout. This perfume is a testament to Diptyque's ability to create masterpieces that are both elegant and captivating.

In conclusion, Benjoin Bohème by Diptyque is an exquisite ode to benzoin, with a beguiling blend of amber, spice, and balsamic notes that will surely enchant anyone who has the pleasure of experiencing it. This perfume is a treasure trove of sensory delights, a scented story of distant lands and the beauty of the present moment.

Impressed

For me, a long echo. I like the composition extraordinarily well. I was finally blown away after a long time. When a fragrance moves you deeply, then something very special happens. You can't really describe it. Deep satisfaction arises. A radiance in your face

Benjoin Boheme

I have been told that this particular perfume may now be discontinued, or perhaps it was always just a limited edition. Either way, I was lucky enough to secure a sample for my testing and subsequent review. Diptyque is a favourite brand and I was hoping this would not let me down. Hope you enjoy the review.

the tragedy of the beautiful, ill-fitting fragrance

Benjoin Boheme unfurls like a clinging veil of memory, a scarred ridge of sepia dreamscape where an ache of memories and ancestral yearning shimmers at the edges of perception. The heady, honeyed sweetness of balsam, benzoin, and amber mingles with the dry herbal whisper of rockrose, but it's a displaced, disconnected twinge of borrowed nostalgia –it's not yours, it doesn’t belong to you, this dusty incense of melancholic longing, and yet it’s tethered close, entangled with damp, earthy tendrils of patchouli. Beneath it all, a static unease hums like the feel of cobwebs brushing against the skin, like your reflection as it fades into the darkness behind you, like glimpsing the subject of a gauzy, blurred antique photograph and looking closer only to discover your own eyes gazing back at you from across time.
