Bois 1920
BOIS 1920 is a brand that expresses the Galardi family’s passion for the art of perfume-making. It all began in 1920 when Guido, the founder, began testing his first formulas, by collecting the lavanda officinalis that ripens in the fields on the hills around Florence.
Guido’s sensibility and art were handed down to Enzo, his grandson who, at the age of thirteen began frequenting Piero, the great expert on essences. In 1985 he turned the world of his passion into a profession.
The year is 2005: Enzo Galardi, reinterpreting the original formulas discovers “perfume” in the sense of artistic expression, his dream lights up, Guido’s emotions and soul materialize into BOIS 1920.Each creation is a special blend of magic. It is unique in the sensations it wants to arouse. It comes from an ancient culture of fragrance that insists on exceptional raw materials to create unusual, precious versions. Fragrances that highlight the olfactory character of the essence to the fullest; fragrances designed to last.
"The garden of my dreams is a warm, exuberant expression of nature that affects all the senses. A tangle of plants, where to lose oneself, conceived as an invitation to simply let go and pleasure the senses."
Victoire-Gobin Daude, Un Jardin en Mediterranee (2003)
