16.1 BOIS NAUFRAGE Eau de Parfum

Pierre Guillaume 16.1 Bois Naufragé is a woody fougère fragrance with a salty, mineral and green-woody character. It is built around Egyptian fig tree, salt crystals, ambergris, mint, vetiver and the idea of driftwood.

Who it is for: For someone who enjoys dry woody scents with a salty edge, green fig nuances and vetiver. A good choice if you want freshness without a typical citrus, sporty or overly aquatic profile.

Who it is not for: Not the best option if you are looking for a sweet, vanilla-rich, very warm or powdery fragrance. It may also be too specific as a blind gift unless the person already enjoys niche fragrances.

Choose this if: You want a niche scent with salty wood, fig and vetiver — fresh, but not ordinary.

Fragrance character: Woody, salty, green, mineral, aromatic

Intensity: Medium

Season: Spring, summer, early autumn; especially suitable when you want a drier, more mineral kind of freshness.

Gift suitability: A specific choice — best for someone who appreciates niche perfumery and unusual fresh woody scents.

Fragrance family:
Woody fougère

Gender indication:
The fragrance is suitable for both men and women. 

Scent notes: Fleur de sel, fig tree, mint, vetiver, driftwood.

Inspiration: Lucien Clergue’s photograph “Nu au bois flotté” / “Naked in Driftwood”.

Detailed description: Bois Naufragé is not a typical marine-fresh fragrance. It feels closer to salt on dry wood, green fig tree shade and clean, slightly grassy vetiver. Mint gives the scent a cooler aromatic lift, while the mineral salt and ambergris impression keep it from becoming sweet.

This is a strong choice for someone who wants a fresh fragrance that does not smell generic — no shower-gel effect, no sporty citrus, no obvious ozonic sea breeze. Instead, it is dry, green and woody with a salty edge. It works well for everyday wear when you want something personal, refined and not too loud.

How to use: Spray on pulse points such as the neck or wrists, or lightly on clothing from a distance. Start with 1–2 sprays, as salty woody fragrances can develop more noticeably on skin over time.
