Polish Potatoes
Known for pairing unlikely notes to create stunning contrasts, BOHOBOCO's approach to "the noble potato" is instead a complex harmony of earthy notes that interpret Creative Director Michal Gilbert Lach's childhood memories of a bustling Polish market, layered with vibrant pine, a sly whisper of rose, golden honey and hay, aged leather and everyone's favorite resins. All built around a surprisingly sublime potato accord.
From BOHOBOCO
A tribute to memories etched in soil and soul, POLISH • POTATOES captures the essence of market mornings and childhood remembrance. This remarkable fragrance opens with profound notes of earthy beetroot, sun-ripened wheat, and crisp pine needles, woven with supple leather and fresh-cut grass – echoing the vibrant spirit of a Polish marketplace at dawn.
At its heart lies the noble potato, an unexpected hero whose rich earthiness mingles with delicate rose, powdery heliotrope and spiced carnation. This interplay creates an intimate portrait of market rituals, where the humble meets the sublime.
The foundation builds on nature's own perfumery: fertile birch bark, rain-kissed soil, and deep patchouli create a grounding base. These primal elements harmonize with precious oud, golden honey, and warm hay, while touches of labdanum, amber and benzoin add complexity and depth. A whisper of sweet vanilla completes this sensual symphony.
Housed in crystal, this fragrance becomes more than a scent – it's a time capsule preserving the soul of empty market squares, still echoing with yesterday's vitality. The distinctive blend of potato's earthen wisdom, aged wood, and sweet soil notes leaves an indelible impression, as eternal as the memories it evokes.
