A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
Blackberry and dried fruits hit immediately with a slightly jammy, fermented intensity—think of preserves warming in afternoon sunlight. Red fruit brightness dominates, but it's already wine-stained, lacking any conventional freshness. Within moments, you're enveloped in something already rich, already demanding attention.
The red wine accord crystallises fully now, becoming genuinely wine-like rather than fruity, whilst patchouli and cedarwood arrive to add a muted, earthy sophistication. A suede-like softness emerges beneath, with leather notes threading through the spice. The fragrance settles into something complexly aromatic—still fruited but now grounded, herbaceous, and thoroughly enveloping.
Brown sugar and caramel dissolve into the leather base, creating an amber-like warmth that clings beautifully to skin. The liqueur note adds viscosity, making everything feel liquefied and sensual. What remains is primarily gourmand with patchouli's earthy whisper—intimate, skin-scent territory that invites closeness rather than projection.
Bohoboco's Red Wine Brown Sugar announces itself as a deliberately intoxicating proposition—a fragrance that doesn't whisper but rather swirls a glass under your nose. The opening salvo of blackberry and dried fruits creates a jammy, almost fermented quality that immediately grounds you in something tactile and wine-dark. This isn't a fresh fruity fragrance; it's one that's been aged in oak, stained with tannins.
As it develops, the red wine note emerges as the true protagonist, not as an abstract wine-accord but as something genuinely vinous and slightly fermented—the kind of scent that makes you understand why wine lovers and fragrance devotees overlap considerably. Patchouli and cedarwood provide structure without drying things out; instead, they anchor the fruit and wine in something earthier, almost leathery. There's a suede-like quality building here, something worn and tactile.
