About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Féminité du Bois Eau Timide is the lighter, more restrained sibling of Shiseido's 1992 oriental woody original — a 'timid' eau that keeps the same architecture but softens its edges. The opening layers cedar and cinnamon over honey, ginger, carnation and rose, so the spice arrives sweet and floral rather than sharp. In the heart, plum, cloves, beeswax, cardamom, peach, violet and orange blossom add a fruity, slightly waxy richness that reads as vintage rather than modern.

The base returns to cedar and cinnamon, now grounded by sandalwood, benzoin, vanilla and musk — warm, powdery and quietly persistent. Collectors should expect the recognizable Féminité du Bois DNA in a more transparent concentration, ideal for those who find the original too dense or who want a wearable autumn/winter scent with old-school polish. It suits lovers of spicy-woody classics and powdery orientals; sample first if you prefer bright, clean fragrances, as the honeyed spice and beeswax dominate.

中文簡介

Féminité du Bois Eau Timide 係 Shiseido 一九九二年東方木質原作嘅輕盈版本,保留同一香調骨架,但線條更柔和。前調以雪松、肉桂為核心,揉合蜂蜜、生薑、康乃馨同玫瑰,令辛香帶甜意同花香,唔會尖銳。中調嘅李子、丁香、蜂蠟、小豆蔻、桃、紫羅蘭同橙花,添上果香同微微蠟質感,氣質偏向舊派典雅。

基調回到雪松同肉桂,再由檀香、安息香、雲呢拿同麝香承托,溫暖、粉質、低調而持久。適合鍾意辛香木質同粉質東方調嘅收藏者,秋冬或晚間使用最為合拍;若偏好清爽明亮嘅香氣,建議先試香,因為蜂蜜辛香同蜂蠟會較為突出。
