Bois d'Argent is appreciated for its refined, unique woody-smoky scent character and decent longevity, but the community consensus is that it lacks the projection and sillage expected for its price point. Many express disappointment with the modern reformulation compared to the original 2004 version, and debate whether the expensive bottle size justifies the subtle performance.
