The Trained Nose

Van Cleef & Arpels

Bois Doré

What it is made of, at the heart of a wearing — and the colour this page is tinted with. Wider means more of it.

Leads bright spice and sweetness, over vanilla underneath. It narrows as the day goes on, and it is among the longest-lasting things here. It carries more dry wood than the rest of the catalogue.
