✅ Awesome unisex classy blend. Clean soft powdery and creamy sandalwood with ylang tonka and aldehides. Addictive Masterpiece imo.
✅ Bois des Iles is one of the most perfect fragrances ever created. ... The whole composition of notes smells classy, elegant and refined.
✅ A classic sandalwood fragrance with a distinctive vintage personality ... Bois des Îles performs well on my skin and lasts up to eight hours.
✅ The sandalwood in this formulation is extraordinary... it sits on skin with that slow-burning depth that takes twenty minutes to fully reveal itself.
✅ The drydown is some of the best woody base work Chanel has done in this century.
✅ Longevity is genuinely impressive — I’m clocking ten to twelve hours on skin before it becomes a skin scent.

❌ The aldehydes blasted my nostrils, powerful and too confident. ... Too dated, too distant, too steeped in a past that isn’t mine.
❌ I find instead a dense aldehydic mist, so overpowering that it drowns out all other notes in its pungent cloud.
❌ Although this new version seems to me well thought out and executed, it gives an impression that the perfume in exchange part of its soul for usability.
❌ The iris shows up on the opening, whispers something elegant around the forty-minute mark, and then quietly leaves the party.
❌ Sillage is more moderate than 'Extrait de Parfum' usually implies.
❌ The price point on this Extrait is, frankly, aggressive.
