The wooden stopper is a good copy of Burberry Touch for Men.

The only wood I find is the hand-made wooden stopper. 🙂

I find this edition disappointing. Basically, if you like Chrome Sport, you’ll find this one appealing to you. Definitely it has Chrome DNA in this. It’s just citrusy cool and musky clean marine type of scent with some dry and sharp feel (just like Chrome!) Then I get some subtle floral accord on my clothes, not on my skin. It’s not very strong, and it seems to fade away quickly. I was excited to find this but now I’m glad I didn’t blind buy it online because it’s just another Chrome in a fancy bottle.

I was lucky enough to find a 125ml bottle of Chrome Bois Precieux relatively cheaply, so I bought it blind. Of course I was aware of what the original Chrome smelt like, but I was intrigued by the addition of ‘precious woods’ to the original’s formulation (and I liked the bottle too).
In truth, this doesn’t seem to differ too greatly from the original (based solely on my memory I’m afraid, as I no longer have the original to compare to). It still has that fresh somewhat metallic opening feel about it, but this version does appear to pull back a touch on that famous (or infamous) metallic sourness.
The fruity sweetness of the lychee combined with just a hint of bitterness from the tea note gives a wonderful lift to the middle phase, but I wished this stage lasted a bit longer!
I’m not sure what kind of ‘precious woods’ have been added to the base, but I do like the overall effect that this leaves with me. Where the original Chrome has a definite Spring/Summer & soapy/aquatic vibe, Chrome Bois Precieux has a little richer and a deeper more balanced presence. I think it’s suitable for all year round and any occasion use.
Overall I’d say it’s a great option for those who love the original, but want to try something a touch different. For me, I have to admit that although Chrome wasn’t a ‘must have’ or top 20 in my collection, I always enjoyed it when I chose to wear it. I find that this Chrome Bois Precieux version is more to my taste and will probably get more use than the original.
Sillage and longevity are on a par with the original version of Chrome. On me this lasts a decent 8 hours or more. If you can get this cheaply, why not give it a try.
