Bois 1920 is an Italian niche house founded in 2013, specializing in fragrances built around wood and leather accords with a focus on raw, authentic compositions rather than mainstream appeal.

Oro 1920 opens with bright raspberry and ginger over fir and incense, creating an initial sweetness with herbal depth. The heart settles into guaiac wood and iris with a delicate may rose, grounding the composition before the base emerges. Leather and tobacco dominate the dry-down, supported by vanilla, beeswax, and benzoin for a warm, slightly honeyed finish. The fragrance balances sweet and woody notes while leather and tobacco drive its character, making it a sophisticated take on the tobacco-leather category with enough fruity-herbal complexity to avoid feeling heavy-handed.

Oro 1920 works well for those seeking a unisex fragrance that leans slightly masculine in execution but remains wearable across genders. It suits cooler months and evening wear, though its opening brightness allows for versatile daytime use. If you're drawn to fragrances with prominent leather and tobacco, explore The Seducer, The Reverie, and The Dark Poet.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
Raspberry
Raspberry
Bright, tart, and slightly jammy, raspberry adds a vivid fruity pop that is harder and more energetic than peach or apricot. It's a signature note of modern fruity florals and adds an accessible sweetness that broadens a fragrance's appeal. Best used with restraint unless you're deliberately going for big and fun.
Ginger
Ginger
Warm, zesty, and slightly medicinal with a bite that sits between spice and citrus. Ginger root adds a lively, invigorating quality to fragrances, it energises rather than soothes. Depending on how it's used, it can read as fresh and zingy or warm and earthy, making it unusually versatile across fragrance families.
Fir
Fir
Incense
Incense
The dry, smoky, slightly woody scent of burning resin, incense in perfumery usually means frankincense or similar resins, adding a contemplative, almost spiritual quality. It creates distance and mystery, making fragrances feel larger than they are. A hallmark of niche, serious perfumery.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Guaiac Wood
Guaiac Wood
Smoky, slightly rosy, and dry, guaiac wood has a gentle, transparent smokiness that doesn't overwhelm. It's often used to add a campfire-distant quality to woody or oriental fragrances without going full leather or incense. One of perfumery's more understated and quietly beautiful materials.
Iris
Iris
One of perfumery's most prized and expensive ingredients, iris has a powdery, cool, almost carrot-like richness that is hard to describe and impossible to mistake. It's simultaneously earthy and refined, like the inside of an old Parisian couture house. Iris root (orris) adds quiet luxury to anything it touches.
May Rose
May Rose
Another name for Rosa centifolia harvested in the Grasse region during May, when essential oil concentration is at its peak. May Rose has a particularly full-bodied, creamy sweetness with honey-like richness. The defining ingredient of many of perfumery's most celebrated rose compositions.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Leather
Leather
One of perfumery's most complex accords, smoky, animalic, and slightly woody, evoking tanned hide, polished saddles, or fine gloves depending on the recipe. Leather adds sophistication and edge simultaneously, and is deeply associated with masculinity in Western perfumery (though the best leather fragrances transcend gender entirely).
Tobacco
Tobacco
Rich, sweet, slightly smoky and earthy, tobacco in perfumery is the idealized version: dried, cured, and faintly honeyed rather than ashy and stale. It adds a deep, contemplative warmth to oriental and woody fragrances. Tobacco fragrances feel settled and confident, the scent of someone who's entirely comfortable in their own skin.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
Beeswax
Beeswax
Warm, slightly honeyed, and faintly waxy, beeswax captures the hive's scent rather than pure honey: less sweet, more complex, with a natural, slightly animalic quality. It adds a living warmth to floral and oriental compositions, suggesting proximity to nature. Closely related to honey in perfumery but quieter and more textural.
Benzoin
Benzoin
Sweet, warm, and balsamic, benzoin resin smells like vanilla mixed with incense, with a powdery, slightly medicinal edge. It adds a comforting warmth and fixative quality to oriental fragrances, and blends beautifully with spices. Often used to smooth and round off sharp edges in complex base notes.
