Solstis

Description Solstis (2022) is a lighter departure from Fragrance du Bois's oud-heavy catalog, a citrus-spicy fragrance composed by perfumer Shadi Samra around the turning point between seasons. It opens on crisp bergamot, apple, mandarin and pink pepper, moves into a warm floral-spice heart of neroli, cardamom, pepper and nutmeg, and settles into a soft, woody-sweet base of sandalwood, vetiver and vanilla. Alongside PM Extrait, Solstis shows the house's range beyond agarwood, no oud here, just clean citrus warmed by spice and wood. Scent Character Fresh/Citrus : 30% Spicy : 26% Woody : 24% Sweet : 20% Translation: a bright citrus-spicy fragrance that settles into soft, woody-sweet warmth, a lighter, everyday side of Fragrance du Bois, with no oud in the formula.
