SOTD: Velours Boisé by Jacques Fath
Good Monday Morning Frag Fam We have been blessed with a new beginning, a new day, and a brand new week. No matter what last week looked like, we are here right now with breath in our lungs and purpose in our steps. Let’s move with gratitude, give it everything we have, and set the tone for a strong week ahead. My scent of the day comes from a house I stumbled upon some time ago and have truly grown to appreciate, the elegant French house Jacques Fath. Today I’m wearing Velours Boisé. This one is boozy, aromatic, woody, and slightly sweet in a beautifully balanced way. The opening is citrusy with a subtle spice that gives it lift and character. As it transitions, it moves into a woody, dry, earthy mid that feels smooth and composed. In the dry down, that boozy sweetness blends effortlessly with the woods, creating a refined and complex finish that lingers with quiet confidence. It’s an underrated composition in my opinion—elegant, nuanced, and well put together without trying too hard. Have a great week, family. Stay grateful, stay focused, and be a blessing wherever you go.
