Milano by Fragrance Du Bois opens on bergamot, orange, saffron and thyme, a citrus-and-spice start that feels crisp rather than sweet. Jasmine and a fruity accord move through the heart, with olibanum adding a resinous edge underneath. The base is where it turns rich: leather, musk, amber, vanilla and woody notes build into a warm, grounded finish. Perfumer Shadi Samra composed it for Fragrance Du Bois, and it launched in 2020 as a fragrance for men and women alike. The community leans toward autumn and winter for this one, worn mostly once the evening turns to night. The community reads its longevity as long-lasting and its sillage as strong, both by a clear margin. Start with a 3ml decant and spend a week of cold nights with it before weighing up the full bottle.

The community verdict
Bergamot and orange give Milano a citrus start, while amber, leather and musk shape its dry-down. Most report long-lasting wear and strong projection, though others describe moderate wear and reach. It suits winter evenings best; autumn and nights work too for its fruity leather notes.

The house
More from Fragrance Du Bois
Fragrance Du Bois is a niche house based in Paris, set up in 2013 around one material, oud, with a stated focus on sourcing it responsibly. Expect smoky, balsamic and slightly earthy perfume, softened by amber and vanilla. Saffron, cardamom and pink pepper bring heat, while rose or cherry adds sweetness. Sirène is the easiest way in: dark cherry and amber wrapped around oud. Oud Rose Intense and Oud Orange Intense come from the first year and show where the house began. Lucius and New York 5th Avenue show its newer work. A small bottle tells you how oud sits on your skin.
